After the glorious shenanigans of the first book in the series this volume comes as a letdown of sorts. It's still quirky and tongue-in-cheek but the pace is slow and the material and jokes do not always hit the highs. The story continue with the adventures or rather misadventures of the protagonist, the census taker, shows partly his sad life and his daily tussle with his destiny and his work. Magic beckons and entertains. Haven't read a story in this strange space for a long time. Still going for the next one.
Census is original, funny, interesting and a great read. I hope that the publishers give Marc and Adam a blank cheque and let them keep writing this story for as long as they are interested.
Kommt mir so vor, als wäre die Handlung absichtlich etwas umständlich gestaltet worden. 24 Seiten sind für einen Handlungsstrang zu lang, aber insgesamt einfach viel zu wenig. Da wäre es mir lieber, wenn mehrere Bände zusammengefasst werden.
This is the second comic in the Comixology series and I enjoyed it even more than the first. The story was a bit longer and gave more information about how the whole census gig works, and it was funny, ending on a very clever note.
In this episode, the dutiful census taker must interview leprechauns and a djinn. Much hijinx. Also he has awful roommates. The ending is pretty dang funny.
I disliked the plot and jokes in this one. Very little happened considering the limited length of the series. Ill finish it since it's so short but I feel like it was wasted potential.
