The premise of this comic is SO intriguing and it was done really well! I enjoyed it way too much and I flew through it. What an interesting perspective... and the art is gorgeous!

The vision has become one of my favorite marvel comic series created. It is a welcomed break from the big villain battles and other worldly adventures. The Vision story is about what it means to be human and how someone who isn’t human discovers that as he is trying to live a normal life with a not so normal family. I can not praise this comic enough. The first two volumes constructed an amazing arc that drew me in completely and left me so satisfied by the end. I hope to get more of this story in the future but if this is the true end then I will still be content.

Wow.
This hurt to read, in a heart-wrenching type of way. It's dark and philosophical and complex and engaging and works as an excellent follow-up to the first volme.
The first issue apparently dealt a lot with past Marvel events and was a little harder to follow. I haven't read much else about Vision and Scarlett Witch, and it's honestly been too long since read volume 1 of this series. That being said, the series is good at explaining what matters and getting to the story at hand.
And the story at hand is the continued efforts of Vision and is family to be "normal" and have a quiet life despite the mistakes that haunt them. But the situation is stacked against them, and the emotions run high throughout this excellent wrap-up to a unique and gripping story.

I have so many emotions. This book does a wonderful job of tying into comic continuity whilst being accessible, philosophical, engaging, and just wonderful.
This is one of my favourite comic series of all time, and I wish everyone could read it

I would give this volume a 4.75, but since I gave the first volume a 3, I'm averaging my review here and giving the whole run a 4.
Vol. 2 provides a solid, ultimately powerful close to a gloomy, dark start that left me satisfied with the series. King shows off the strength of an intimate, close-quarters superhero story and how such a story could have [Marvel] universe-wide consequences, without sacrificing the restraints of the setting.
A very strong arc that works like any quality domestic drama, with a twist that feels true to the relationships King built.

Also I admit bringing the dog back helped a lot.A very strong arc that works like any quality domestic drama, with a twist that feels true to the relationships King built.

As I've already said on the previous volume - this plot went in a direction I had not expected and honestly, I quite enjoyed it, even if it was kind of... brutal (for lack of a better word). I loved the flashbacks showing Vision's relationship with Wanda (what can I say, I love her).
Definitely recommend this story if you love WandaVision and want more! (I also highly recommend [b:House of M|105973|House of M|Brian Michael Bendis|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1409502209l/105973._SX50_.jpg|102154] and [b:Avengers: Vision and the Scarlet Witch: A Year in the Life|7872679|Avengers Vision and the Scarlet Witch A Year in the Life|Steve Englehart|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1532277615l/7872679._SY75_.jpg|15834382]).

Creepifying and confusing. But definitely some great bits here. The flashbacks to different bits of Wanda and Vision's relationship and it's relationship to his current relationships added quite a bit. Exploring the motivations of a family of robots was more torturous than I would have expected. In the end it was hard to tell if this book was deep or just surface deep. But it was definitely interesting.
