Monster World #2

Monster World #2 from WildStorm delivers the kind of wide-eyed energy you'd expect from a series built around kids dropped into extraordinary circumstances — Carlos Meglia's cover art packs four young, distinctly designed characters into a dynamic pile-up, each one radiating a different flavor of alarm, determination, or stunned disbelief. Lurking at the edges are glimpses of alien flora and a peculiar fish creature rising from the water, hinting at the strange world surrounding our heroes. Writer Scott Lobdell and artist Meglia make a lively team, and this 2001 issue promises plenty of big-personality adventure for anyone who enjoys their action with a healthy dash of cartoon charm.
