Keeper 2

Scott Winslow is making a killing in England.  As he plies his trade as star goalkeeper for up & coming East London club Lewisham United, he moonlights as a serial murderer terrorizing the public with a body count in double digits.  Scott Winslow's reign of terror continues, but how close are Scotland Yard to discovering the horiffic truth? Will Scott lay low... or has the violence only just begun?

Most everyone has their own thing that they’re good at and really enjoy doing.  Some, like Scott Winslow for example, become a star player for a soccer team.  That’s unfortunately not the only thing he’s good at.  I guess the excitement of his day job just isn’t enough for him as he proves again in issue 2 of Keeper.

The cops are on the hunt, and their first solid lead has them aiming right for Lewisham United.  After a rather intense questioning with the coach, the team has been put under curfew at their next match.  You’d think this might be enough to make Scott back off for a bit, but some habits just don’t die.  Yet another poor soul does though, and it definitely makes things worse.

Being a little further into the series, I’ve become accustom to the art style.  Admittedly, I still have a little trouble with the way faces are done though.  It’s silly, but it just stands out to me.  On the other hand, the striking amount of blood and violence almost makes up for it.

Stories like this that keep you on your toes are always exciting to read.  With the anticipation of the authorities finally working out the case, the dramatic face off is just hanging about us.  This is still looking like a worthwhile series to stick with, so jump on the ride before things move too fast.
