Some imaginary friends never go away . . .
Ten years after starting Project Mayhem, he lives a mundane life. A kid, a wife. Pills to keep his destiny at bay. But it won't last long, the wife has seen to that. He's back where he started, but this go-round he's got more at stake than his own life.The time has arrived . . .Rize or Die.
New York Tomes bestselling novelist Chuck Palahniuk and acclaimed artist Cameron Stewart have collaborated for one of the most highly anticipated comic book and literary events of 2015--the return of Tyler Durden. The first rule of Fight Club 2 might be not to talk about it, but Fight Club 2 is generating international headlines and will introduce a new generation of readers to Project Mayhem.
Praise for the comics that comprise Fight Club 2:
“At turns deeply poignant and very funny, Palahniuk’s freakish fables capture a twisted zeitgeist and add an oddly inspirational and subversive voice to the contemporary canon…. In the post-9/11 present, a hyperactive, Internet-obsessed, war- and recession-weary America apparently needs Tyler again.”—THE ATLANTIC
“The book is fantastic, my highest recommendation.... Excellent work by Cameron Stewart and David Mack, and by our awesome friends at Dark Horse Comics.”—Brian Michael Bendis
“If Tyler Durden needed a resurgence, there’s no time like the present for his return… Fight Club 2 is a comic that taps back into everything great about the source material, and one that makes Tyler Durden’s warm nihilistic embrace a welcome draw back into a familiar world of cynicism, violence, and anarchy....“Tyler Lives,” and I couldn’t be happier by the prospect of more bedlam.”—NEWSARAMA
“Palahniuk is delivering a worthy sequel to his most beloved story.”—THE NERDIST
“Entertaining.”—COMIC BOOK RESOURCES
“Excellent.”—THE BEAT
“An amazing piece of work. You do not want to miss out on this.”—COMICVINE
“Perfect.”—FORCES OF GEEK
“We have a worthy sequel on our hands…. A must read.”—COMICOSITY
“Cameron Stewart truly outdoes himself on every level in this book.”—BLOODY DISGUSTING
“Clever and beautiful.”—COMICS ALLIANCE

Let's get one thing straight. This book is silly. It's parody. It's a bitter mockery by the author of the success of the original. While I can appreciate the irony and understand how this is the ultimate appropriate reaction to some of the ideas and statements in the Fight Club novel/movie, it ultimately just destroys the hope and anti-consumerism message that made the first story so great. As a whole, this feels like everything the first story was against. This is not a spiritual successor or true sequel, this is a commercialistic lampoon.
Now that we have that out of the way... Cameron Stewart's art is great, and there are some clever visuals that make the read interesting and fun. However, the story is choppy and hard to follow at times. Chuck seems to take great pleasure in mocking the entire cast of the original story and putting them into ridiculous situations to which there are no logical conclusions. What do you do when you've written yourself into a corner? You write yourself into the story talking about how you've written yourself into a corner. If it's supposed to be humorous, it fails miserably. It just feels like a lazy, bitter response to the success of the original Fight Club. I'd much rather see one of his other books, possibly Lullaby, given a serious treatment in comics or film. This was such a let down.
I'm critical of the outcome of this graphic novel. So that my biases are evident, I favor Palahniuk's "Fight Club," "Survivor," "Invisible Monsters," and "Haunted."
The unnamed narrator we knew as "Jack" is Sebastian, now in his mid-30s. Sebastian is a heavily medicated depressive, stuck in another blah office job and trying to raise his potentially disturbed son with his wife, Marla Singer. Marla secretly goes to groups. Bored, she finds a way to resurrect Tyler Durden.
The tragedy here is poor execution. Marla is a thinly sketched and unrealistic film noir trope. Sebastian's cutting wit has disappeared; he's pathetic. The premise could have been excellent. The myth of 1990s prosperity has passed, blown away by exposed accounting gimmicks, hyped IPOs, declining wages, and outright fraud. Terrorist attacks, several wars, and 2008's near-economic collapse have darkened the United States. The Space Monkeys have shifted to a mercenary bent and a "culling the herd" philosophy. Durden has reemerged as murderous, imperious and messianic. The evolution makes sense: Fight club emerges from in-group violence to the pranks of Project Mayhem, to an even darker vision to recast the world according to Tyler Durden's ideals. Sebastian's mid-30s, family man crisis, his lack of friends, and ailing marriage offer a fertile backdrop for his relapse.
Instead, Palahniuk fails miserably to deliver a meaningful story after the first third of the graphic novel. Some interesting bits about Durden's origins ring true. The book is beautifully illustrated, although the art obstructs significant text and dialogue. Palahniuk also resorts to breaking the 4th wall to navel gaze about "Fight Club's" cultural significance, and cribs elements of his later introduction to "Fight Club." Look at me and what I've unleashed on the world. Ultimately, it's an unsatisfying experience that fizzles out following a great premise, setting and build up. Too bad Jim Uhls wasn't tapped to write the sequel.
the comics paintings is the only thing thats good in here but chuck palahniuk without david fincher is like a coca cola without bubbles- just sucks!!!

The artwork is beautiful and fits the dark themes and humour of the content perfectly. Some graphic novels I'll just quickly flip through and not pay too much attention to the details, but I found myself staying on certain pages of this book for a while, just admiring the drawings.
I bought the hardback copy, and it's very good quality. Lovely addition to my collection.
I hope they make this in to a movie.
