Reviews

Zito and D' Antoni Live On

"Awesome comic book slipcase edition of Maniac 2. Beautiful art and extras. Great continuation of Maniac and it's characters. Spinell and Munro are recreated to perfection. Solid release and totally worth the purchase."

Matthias U. (5/5)

Maniacs

"Absolutely stunning set."

Kevin G. (5/5)

The comic is a good

"The comic is a good sequel to the story from the first volume. Romano is a good writer and includes all the elements readers of a Maniac comic would want. . The art style is not really to my taste but certainly does a good job of telling the story and bringing the gore. The packaging is elaborate and well-done, but frankly a bit of overkill that makes it somewhat of a chore to read- the slipcase and sleeves are all a bit much. I feel like individual issues or a trade paperback would've made for an easier and more relaxing reading experience."

Jason M. (3/5)

The best graphic novel presentation ever

"These bundles of art and story are one of the best things ever. Presentation and content wise they are truly for the new and old fans. Got me watching these old gems of movies again."

Antonio M. (5/5)

Holy Grail comic

"This is a beast! I loved the first Maniac comic and the sequel does not let down! Everything about this was amazing from the artwork to the story to the spot glossing on the cover. Came with a mini poster and book mark and signed goodies too!"
