Bitch Planet, Volume 2: President Bitch
by Valentine De Landro, Taki Soma, Kelly Sue DeConnick
Well I'd like it alot more than 1 so that's good.
So after the death of a main character we have the rest of the women trying to find their role and still break out of this hell hole. The story doesn't skip a beat, throwing you right into the background of a main character and learn why her ultimate fate ended up that way. Then we jump into present time trying to build all these characters up for the big revolution. The escape. Do they do it? Well it wouldn't be fun if they didn't try.
Good: The art is easier to follow in this one and not as many crazy off color panels. I also thought they flushed out a few more characters and we got to know them. The ending too was pretty epic and fucked up, but worth getting through. The background story was sad, but needed, as it helped build why everyone is so upset.
Bad: The mass amount of characters will probably make you stop and re-read volume 1 or go on Wiki. It's hard to keep up with them all and then when they show up again you're like "Who are you?" also the pacing seemed off. What happened in 5 issues could have happened in 3.
This was much more enjoyable than volume 1 for me. I don't think it's "great" like many do but this is a solid, interesting, and well put together volume. A 3 out of 5.
