Reviews
Newcomers to the series will appreciate this tale, though those who have read the first installment will get the most out of it. Richly colored artwork builds tension and depicts dynamic fight scenes. Humor abounds, too, like a scene where Ellis does celebrity impressions while appearing on a talk show. Readers will especially enjoy the James Bond–esque gadgets, like Timothy’s recorder, which squirts pink foam, and Ellis’ laser-powered grid security. While the narrative comes to a satisfying conclusion, it’s clear there are more exploits in store. Ellis presents white; other human characters are diverse.A high-octane adventure fueled by humor, whimsy, and teamwork.
