review 1: Hat mir wieder sehr gut gefallen. Inzwischen kennt man alle Freakangels und - ja, irgendwie mag ich sie alle. Jeder hat seine Aufgabe und seine Bestimmung und jeder seine Macken und Eigenarten. Auch die verschiedenen Beziehungen zwischen ihnen sind total interessant zu verfolgen und inzwischen bekommt auch die Geschichte eine eindeutige Richtung: Sesshaft werden, das wollen sie. Das müssen sie wahrscheinlich und ich bin unheimlich interessiert daran ob und wie sie es schaffen werden.Außerdem interessiert mich noch immer der Vorfall wegen dessen die Welt überhaupt so ist wie sie ist. In diesem Band wurde ja einiges angedeutet - und wow, damit hatte ich nicht gerechnet. Was aber genau vorgefallen ist? Ich bin extrem gespannt darauf, das zu erfahren.
review 2: ... moreThe Freakangels world continues to grow with this second volume. As the new girl settles in, a mortar attack signals the beginning of a traitor in the midst of Whitechapel and the Freakangels retaliate by heading to the dissident territory of Shoreditch. The infrastructure of Whitechapel is debated as the Freakangels' protectorate grows and they begin to realise their responsibilities lie further afield.The characters of the Freakangels are what I love best about this series. Warren Ellis imbues them with individual characteristics and has them interact so easily, I completely buy that they're best friends with a long history behind them. There's also hints of how they ended the world and the variety of their powers, which suggests adventures of the kind of large scale Ellis is used to dealing with in series like "The Authority" and "Planetary".Paul Duffield's drawing style continues to enthral. He uses large panels per page so the maximum number is four and often is just two or three, allowing for more detail per page and a kind of cinematic quality to the books. There's also a few scenes where the Freakangels go on the hunt for their supposed assassins and the way he draws them makes them look like a scene from the "Village of the Damned"."Volume 2" is an excellent sequel to the first one, adding more to the saga of these fascinating characters the increasingly more doomed world they inhabit. "Freakangels" is quickly becoming one of my favourite Ellis titles and is definitely worth a look if you're a comics fan. less
