All in the search for his role in life. A terribly boring, silly, weak story with an absurd protagonist and zero consequences view spoiler [other than the accidental self-abortion of Beyonder's mortal form, hopefully doing away with him permanently hide spoiler ]. I'm really not sure how this was allowed to be called "Secret Wars II" considering there is nothing resembling a secret war anywhere to be found here. I'm not sure how it even got produced. Anyone who rants about merely average comics has no idea what true crap is and needs to read this stat. I almost never come across something that boggles my mind and is this unintentionally hilarious, but this is right up there near the top of that list. It could all be condensed down into one issue, and in a way it was; all of the vaguely interesting portions happen in the last of the nine issues. I tossed it a second star merely for raising some really interesting questions about how an omnipotent being would ever be satisfied if no challenges exist. Secret Wars II 2 comments.

Collects Secret Wars II issues In this sequel to the groundbreaking event that had only come a year before this particular book's releasethe Beyonder finally shows his face. His presence was felt in the original "Secret Wars," but we never actually saw the character. Here, Beyonder takes a physical manifestation and explores Earth and humanity. Having just read "Secret Wars," I was expecting this Secret Wars II be more all-out battling. The only thing I Secret Wars II qualify as being worthy of the title "Se Collects Secret Wars II issues In this sequel to the groundbreaking event that had only come a year Secret Wars II this particular book's releasethe Beyonder finally shows his face. The only thing I would qualify as being worthy of the title "Secret Wars" happens in the last issue. Most of the material before that is much more Secret Wars II than you would expect from a Marvel comic. The Beyonder is questioning what it means to be a human. What is desire? What is love? What if there was no death? What would that mean for humanity? Before reading it, I mostly heard bad things about this s event. I can see why some people were disappointed with it, but I was pleasantly surprised by some of the philosophical questions that were being tackled. I also enjoyed having more light shed on what led to the events of the original "Secret Wars. This book got very cosmic, and all of the top space entities were present not to mention virtually ever important superhero from this time period. The way that the main title and tie-ins were released seems to be unique in that the tie-ins are very important to the overall flow of the Beyonder's journey. Since I am in the middle of reading the event also called"Secret Wars," reading this has been helpful in that I am getting more background information on some of the players in this current event. I find myself enjoying aspects of this older story more because I know which characters are important to the "Secret Wars," and I am reading this book through the lens of what is eventually going to be meaningful in the Marvel Universe. Beyonder is from someplace outside of the main Multiverse. May 22, Tommy rated it really liked it Shelves: comics. An amusing storyline following up on the very Secret Wars II Secret Wars of the previous year. This one didn't have the same feeling of weight and importance to me even though the fate of the world was at stake again. Still it was fun to see the beyonder up close and personal as he took human form and his philosophical struggle to find meaning and purpose in human life was interesting. Jul 06, Sans rated it Secret Wars II not like it Shelves: the-writing-it-burnscomics-graphic-novelsmarvel. This is why comic books have bad reputations. Mar 15, Ed rated it did not like Secret Wars II. The art is bad, the writing is worse, and it's incredibly sexist. The only redeeming factor is Molecule Man, who continues to be an interesting character. Jun 22, Mela rated it did not like it Shelves: comics-grn- mangareviewed. Jun 29, Ginny rated it did not like it Shelves: graphic-novels. Nov 22, Jason rated it did not like it. I couldn't possibly hate something so delightfully awful that it entertained me as much as this did. Absolutely hilarious. And terrible. Jun 28, Lee rated it it was ok Shelves: marvel. Boring and uninteresting. I suppose if you found the Beyonder's search for Secret Wars II to be compelling it might be but he wasn't even an interesting character. I Secret Wars II it 2 stars solely on the strength of some of the outside stories using him. You can see the strength and creativity in some of the writers in using such a character Claremont in particular had the most luck. Removing those stories and the Secret Wars II series is even more lacking. And while I understand having to recap for new readers period Boring and Secret Wars II. And Secret Wars II I understand having to recap for new readers periodically, the fact that some recaps took up multiple Secret Wars II in some issues speaks to padding out a slight story. Secret Wars II concept would have been stronger if the series narrowed its focus away from everything except Molecule Man and the Beyonder. By juxtaposing them, it would have had made a better story Secret Wars II the nature of humanity and coping with one's own power in the universe. Why Secret Wars II the Beyonder not ever ask why MM didn't use his power more as he himself did? That question might've been interesting but the series Secret Wars II bothered.
