Review of advance copy
As with volume one, volume two is a bit of a mixed bag. Here are my super quick thoughts on the stories…
Baroness:
Beautifully deadly. Joelle Jones keeps it dark and mysterious.
Crimson Guard:
Tragic and sad with a Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid type of ending. Gabriel Hardman’s art really helps you feel the story.
Zartan:
Silly and camp. Zartan was never a favorite of mine, and still isn’t. And Pat Olliffe’s art didn’t help sell it much either.
Copperhead:
What did I just read? A confusing Cajun Super Mario Cart? Howard Porter, I loved your work on Flash, but what did you just draw?
Firefly:
Best of the bunch, by a mile. Jorge Fornes’ art hits the Cold War espionage thriller feel perfectly. Plus it’s always fun to see a bad guy doing bad things to other bad guys.
Yearbook #3:
Wonderful nostalgia fix. I still have my original copy of this issue that I bought off the rack when it was published.
Overall, not bad. It’s a fun “read”. It goes quick, but it’s worth it.
I do not have an ARC. I bought this from my local comic book shop the week it was released to the direct market.

Review of advance copy
I don't know why it says this isn't published yet, my comic shop had it September 23. As with the first volume, G. I. Joe silent issues are a fun tradition, but some work really well (in this issue, the Larry Hama one about Scarlett going in disguise or Firefly infiltrating a Russian base) and some just struggle to tell the story (please tell me the Copperhead one was printed out of order). It's a much quicker read and doesn't feel like great value for the price of the book, but again, a fun tradition and nice to have all in one place.
Review of advance copy
Much like the first volume the gimmick wears thin quickly, unlike the first volume one of the issues (Copperhead's) is a disappointing, confused mess, dragging down the rest of the book.
Review of advance copy
Read as single issues
Review of advance copy
The Joelle Jones issue is great, the Firefly issue is visually pretty interesting and the Hama throwback is a fun counterpoint to the original Silent issue. Otherwise this is pretty forgettable.
