Midlife (Or How to Hero at Fifty!) #2

The second issue of Image Comics' charming series finds our armored, goggle-wearing hero standing in the middle of what appears to be a perfectly ordinary neighborhood ice cream truck scene — gadgets at the ready, a colorful fox-headed figure at his feet — while families and kids go about their sunny day completely unbothered. There's something genuinely fun about Stefano Simeone's warm, sun-drenched cover art, which captures the series' central tension beautifully: a fully suited-up superhero navigating the thoroughly mundane world of everyday life. Brian Buccellato and Simeone's comedic premise — heroism at fifty — looks as fresh and inviting as ever in this second installment.
