I didn't love this one quite as much as volume 1, but I'm not really sure why. It was still very enjoyable. This volume continues with all the ridiculous wacky fun and meta-ness of the character while managing an effective level of sincerity and heart. Vol. 2 also benefits from a number of exciting cameos and guest appearances. It's a great concept and a great series.

I love Gwenpool! The plot in this volume was a lot better and not as messy as the last one. It was still super random and ridiculous, but who cares these comics are so much fun. I love it. Definitely an improvement from the last one. I can't wait to get my hands on the next volume and see what other crazy shit Gwenpool gets herself into.

Dumber than Deadpool. But cuter and funnier. I like this book. I like Gwen Poole in general. It's almost embarrassing. It doesn't even succeed in being clever. I like the art, I like the writing. I even like Batroc the Leaper and he's awful everywhere else. Perhaps this book isn't for everyone.

Loved the Mysterious Client, continue to love the meta-narrative about the cost of Superheroism to the general public. Took it down a star because of a muddy plot point that could have been cleaned up-- wonder if it's the scar of a late revision? Anyway, worth it for the Poole Boys(TM)!

An enjoyable character I'd dig to share stories with IRL. All new ways of breaking the fourth wall +)
