Well, that was a lot of nothing. I expected that the story would pick up after the first volume, but instead we get ~170 pages of nothing really happening until the last 20 pages. Even worse than the boring story, we get a cliffhanger ending with sequel bait on what was supposed to be a two volume limited series. sigh...

There's a lot that's wrong with the story other than the atrocious pacing. It mostly boils down to all the characters ranging from very boring to infuriatingly boring. There isn't a single character that I can remember or root for. They're all boring college bros that spend most of their dialogue talking about their relationships and their college days instead of the real story happening now. Each chapter starts with some form of "I really liked Walter... But he's evil now... And I'm very sad...", which is kind of hilarious considering I have no idea who's talking and it doesn't really matter because every character is a cardboard box that all act the same.

The other problem with volume 2 is that it employs the worst trope in all of story-telling: characters getting amnesia and forgetting important things that happened so you can watch them spend the rest of the story going in a circle and try to remember everything again. Nothing. Is. Happening.

The only reason it's not a 1 star is because I still really like the concept of the series. The execution though, sucks. The ending is lame and I felt nothing when things happened to certain characters. It's clear James Tynion just had no idea how to continue the series after the concept stage.
