Like the first book in the Brody's Ghost series, it is overall much thinner than Crilley's previous series "Miki Falls". I am very positive that all of the Brody's Ghost books will be at the same thickness from here on out.
Volume 2 continues Brody's life where it picked off in the previous book. In Volume 2, you get a little bit more insight at the background for the main characters, Brody and Talia.
Mark does not disappoint when it comes to detailed scenery. There are many pages filled with highly detailed city landscapes and such. Every single detail was made with incredible care. Mark should feel very proud of his work; because I am amazed by the amount of work the he put into the book.
Also like the first book, there are a good amount of action scenes where Brody has to dish out his fists on his enemies, all of which do not disappoint. Every fight scene is well delivered, and highly suspenseful.
There is a MASSIVE cliffhanger at the end of this book that will without a doubt want you to read the next book. But I will not reveal the ending in this review.
If you want to know what it is, then pick up Brody's Ghost volume 2 in stores or right here on Amazon!
This book is flawless in my opinion. All I have to say is: Keep 'em coming, Mark!

Ok, I`d read "Miki Falls" and loved the story. I also loved how Mr.Criley drew his backgrounds, but the artwork of the individual characters kinda bugged me. So when I heard he was writing a shonen series, I was interested but hesitant to buy it (I obsess with manga-ka artwork)because I heard the main character was a guy and I really didn`t want him to look anything like Miki`s love interest: Heero. Well, I watched some of his drawing tutorials online and immediatly noticed how much he had improved, then I was really anticipating "Brody`s Ghost".
So I bought it finally. And oh my WORD!!! The artwork is AWESOME!! And the main character is SO HOT!...in book 2. >_<
lol
You gotta hand it to Crilley, this series is WAY different than "Miki Falls". It`s darker. But I think that`s why I like it. I feel alot more realism in this story (aside from it being fiction) I felt you could engage with the characters better. Of course the detailed backgrounds are far from disapointing. Yep, you can expect nothing but awesomeness from Mark Crilley`s new series.
(ps the books are REALLY thin, but there`s tons of dialogue and things happening so your not getting jipped at all)

I found out about Mark Crilley (the author/illustrator) through Cartoon Block's channel on YouTube. I watched a few of Mark's drawing tutorial videos and really admired his skill and willingness to help out other artists. I'm currently going to college for game design and development and will focus on conceptual art and creative directing so I'm always looking for great artists and storytellers. I decided to pick up Mark's most recent graphic novel series and absolutely fell in love. The art style, story, and everything else is so fresh and unique I've read the first two books at least 10 times now.
Book 2 is an amazing follow-up to the first book and really gets the story going. My only complaint is that, due to Mark working on this series essentially by himself, is that the books' releases are fairly stretched out. But, that gives us readers a great deal of time to enjoy other publications and save up money for his next books. I highly recommend this series to anyone who enjoys graphic novels with a manga art style and fantastic story.
