technicat reviewed The Good Asian, Volume 2 by Pornsak Pichetshote (The Good Asian #2)
fast-paced, a little confusing
5 stars
I got into the groove with this second volume more than the first, maybe partly because all the characters were introduced earlier (and I had a little trouble remembering all the characters from the first volume). The plot moved fast and wrapped things up, and there was a lot of action, and ended with a noirish tone, somewhat like the movie Chinatown, but with an actual Chinatown. As with the first volume, the historical discussion at the end is edifying, and the treatment for this comic books is also included, which I always find interesting.
