review 1: When I read volume one, I thought wow someone took a really bad Rob Liefield property and turned it into a semi-decent, arguably good science fiction tale.Part of me wants to still feel that way, but this volume falls a little short of the expectations I built off of volume one. We're still millennia in the future, but I feel like where John Prophet had a mission in volume one, in volume two he seems to be more of a meandering man. It appears that he has a goal in mind, but the reader isn't being given much insight into how John will reach that goal.The story is good, but would be so much better if the characterization and story direction were improved.
review 2: Prophet continues to be one of the most ambitious comics being published today. Volume two sees t... morehe continuation of the excellent art, and inventive settings and alien creatures. I found myself wishing that a stronger plot thread emerged drawing the issues together. The storyline is a bit loose, and is at times hard to follow in a larger sense, more than just issue-to-issue. Another pet peeve: we are in the second volume of trades, and there still seems to be an ever-expanding alien vocabulary, new words and species introduced it seems on every other page. It hurts the pacing a bit, getting hung up on the new terminology and trying to commit it to memory. That's why this is 3 instead of 4 stars. I will still gladly continue reading. I hope a stronger plot emerges, especially now that Diehard is involved and we get a glimpse of Supreme. less
