Once again, excellent (and often ambiguously suggestive) artwork by Bueno and Bellaire support the nature of the storytelling. What I most appreciate from this (at least so far) is the grand scale of the story implications while tightly wrapping the action in a very localized setting. The characters are thoughtful and real, smart and emotive.
For the first time in discovering a graphic novel series, I honestly look forward to the next issue!
Moderate: Gore, Cursing, and Death

Walter is still in the center of everything but there's a melancholy in this volume that adds on to the tension as the group is sill together but oddly enough not the same from volume one and it's confusing as I had to piece together some things but honestly I have more questions.
One can only hope that there's another volume that'll help me find the answers.
Moderate: Gore, Confinement, Death, and Body horror
Minor: Gun violence
