Outsiders, Vol. 2: Sum of All Evil by Sean Parsons, Scott Hanna, Tom Raney, Tom Derenick, Will Conrad, Kevin Conrad, Judd Winick
3.0
I didn't like this one as much as the last one, unfortunately.
Winick's writing of female characters is hit or miss for me. I absolutely abhorred the way Helena was written in this. She was just there to be desired and snarky towards Dick. There's even a point where she gets in Jefferson Pierce's face for no reason at all other than to be a dick. I hated that portion so much.
I like Grace but her sleeping with Roy because he just showed up at her place was confusing to me.
The AI, Jinx I think her name was, is just an annoying character. It appears that she has more abilities than anyone else yet she honestly seems the flightiest to me. Weird.
Anyway, I really enjoyed the relationship between Jefferson and Anissa. I loved everything to do with Roy, especially his relationship with Dick. The darker vibe of this series is much appreciated.
I came to hate the art, unfortunately. None of it was impressive to me and women were drawn so thin that there's no room for their internal organs.
