I can see Mitch's side of things in this book, and the more I read about his powers, the more they intrigue me. Mitch's origin is very strange and not quite what I thought. I'm glad that he is not like he used Resurrection Man: A Matter of Death and Life (the New 52) Volume 2 be, because he used to be a real tool, and that's putting it lightly. There is tons of action in this book, and I could see it Resurrection Man: A Matter of Death and Life (the New 52) Volume 2 a pretty cool tv show or movie ada This volume piggy backs onto the second Suicide Squad volume Suicide Squad, Vol. There is tons of action in this book, and I could see it as a pretty cool tv show or movie adaptation, although they'd have to turn down the violence a tad. The ending is one what gives you a 'huh' moment and makes you wonder what's going to happen next. And I Resurrection Man: A Matter of Death and Life (the New 52) Volume 2 there's only two volumes. That's too bad! Overall rating: 3. May 16, Anna rated it liked it. So three stars on this one, when it would have been four. I want more, dammit!!! I really wish this one wasn't cancelled, cause I feel like if given more time it could have spread it's wings in some interesting ways much like the shitty cancellation of iZombieactually, except this got two less v So three stars on this one, when it would have been four. I really wish this one wasn't cancelled, cause I feel like if given more time it could have spread it's wings in some interesting ways much like the shitty cancellation of iZombieactually, except this got two less volumes than that one did.

This is classic Resurrection Man: Mitch learns a little bit about his past, tries to discover more, and meanwhile someone else makes a grab at him. Mind you, that doesn't mean it was great, as the story was shallow and full of fighting. Sadly, I think the Suicide Squad issue was better than the RM issues, because it had interesting character development and interactions -- though I was puzzled that a woman that I thought was shot dead in Resurrection Man: A Matter of Death and Life (the New 52) Volume 2 9 seemed to be Against the Suicide SquadSS 9. The Rest of the Comic0. The Resurrection Man comic starts to Resurrection Man: A Matter of Death and Life (the New 52) Volume 2 up velocity as it nears the end. Issue 11 is particularly nice with its attention to almost every major force that's bedeviled Mitch in the New When we final gets answers in 12 and 0, they're interesting ones that made this new version of Mitch a worthwhile read. My only complaint is the bad art in the final issue, which was at odds with everything that came before. In the end, I don't think the New 52 Resurrection Man was as good as the original one, but it was still a nice if shallow return to the old theme. Now I just wish that DC would reprint the other half of Mitch's original run though I'm pretty sure that hope is in vain. Feb 19, Joseph rated it really liked it. The second volume of the New 52 Resurrection Man series was a lot better than the first. The mystery surrounding Mitch Shelley is solved, and there's a cool interlude with the Suicide Squad flying in and making their mischief to what end is not clear. Mitch meets a psychometric named Kim Rebecki, and she becomes his constant companion to the end of the book. She's a pretty good character all her own, and I'd love to see more of her. There's a lot of action here, and the story moves at a good c The second volume of the New 52 Resurrection Man series was a lot better than the first. There's a lot of action here, and the story moves at a good clip. The series seemed to be able to wrap up in a nice fashion, even though it was canceled. Nothing feels too rushed and the previous volumes Heaven vs Hell over the soul of Mitch is taken care of as well. Looking forward to seeing the Body Doubles again, also. Art is varied this time, with Fernando Dagnino and Jesus Saiz providing most of it. Rafael Albuquerque and Francisco Francavilla provide some really top notch covers. Sep 12, James rated it liked it. Not as epic as the first run in the s, and not as complete in world building as the volume that proceeded it, this second volume feels rushed a bit, but still compelling enough.
