I dont know man... Im not one of the original fans of this series, but I liked the first book. This second one is not near as good.
Nowhere near as good as Vol 1. Whilst Vol 1 made a limited degree of sense, and was great fun, Vol 2 seems to see our authors ingesting many more drugs than strictly necessary to maintain a semblance of plot or indeed reality.
The stories feel very rushed and sloppily executed, as if they were writing/drawing to a deadline, and most of the manic intensity in Vol 1 is dissipated into a directionless and not remotely funny mush.
Get Vol 1, but skip this one.
Awesome If you love art and you love comics and you love random, then this is the comic for you.
Tank Girl Tank Girl does not make sense, she can out run Mr. Whippy. She Does not like you. Tank girl is mean. The drawings by the hewl only bare SLIGHT resemblance with the gorillaz drawings he did. They have nothing in common. If you think you do, you deserve to have your copy of tank girl 2 and all others you may have stolen.
If you hated the movie? You may be one of those people who asked themselves, 'Why in $^%$# did they make this movie? That is in regard to the textbook case of Hollywood compromise and dreck that was the incredably dissapointing film version. Well the answers are in the pages of one of the best demented comics ever made. Unfortunetly, movie execs couldn't greenlight a purely sociopathic superheroine who mows down her enemies and can not hear their screams (cause her personal stereo is on too loud!)So she had to have a name (in the movie) and a little girl to save (just like the heroine in another movie, you can here the pitch meeting! It will be like Aliens meets The great rock and roll swindle with a little Kissing Jessica Stein thrown in.)No plot (who needs it!)loads of sarcasm and self parody, lot's of pointless violence! The best punk rock comic ever made. If you like Gorillaz videos, that's about as deep as it gets... only funnier.
