Sanctuary #2

The second issue of Stephen Coughlin's new digital comic book series Sanctuary drives us deeper into mysteries and questions. The death of one of the research stations inhabitants opens up an investigation from both the human and animal inhabitants of the island.

The Good

It’s always great to see a follow up issue explode off the page, and Sanctuary 2 does just that.  The story definitely took a turn I was not at all ready for, but that drastic twist is quite interesting.  Character development was strong as well, giving us a lot more interaction with the animals.

The Bad

The one little thing I didn’t care for so much was the small romantic piece with some of the human characters, mostly as I thought it detracted from the main focus on the animals.

The Summary

The book opened up exactly as I hoped it would, giving us our first big insight into the secrets on the island.  This second issue does a great job of pulling the reader in much deeper and grabbing your attention.  This dark plot is really picking up now, and is well worth getting into.
