Almost exactly like the first issue. The artwork is still good, the writing is still solid (that graveyard scene was really nice) and there are still those cute small references / Easter eggs, but there's still no proper story. iZOMBiE keeps introducing characters and setting to us, but somehow it feels like this comic teases us more than telling the story. I mean, it's a second issue, you can't help buy want something to actually happen. Like the first issue, this one is very nice, but you can't help but want some more from it.

#2 – ‘Working Stiffs’
“Ghosts can be pretty hard to spot on the daylight, though.”

Had to remind myself it wasn't Negative Man and that I wasn't reading Doom Patrol.

And again... what I did just read? A lot of supernaturals on the same comic book and very little planing or getting the people situated on what is going on... So, zombies. Ok. Ghosts. Ok. Vamps. Ok. But... are they hiding from the world or out and about? Is this a regular occurence? I dunno, feels like it should be better presented.
