Select praise for JUPITER’S LEGACY, VOL. 2 #1:

“A simple, action-packed treat.” —Comic Book Resources

“Two talented creators weaving an exciting and visually stunning tale of villains taking the world back from the heroes that failed it.” —IGN

“Millar and Quitely are obviously an excellent team and the synergy between them shines through in this comic. Sometimes when a series starts a new arc there can be a worry that it might have lost some of the magic that kept you interested in the first place. Not so with Legacy 2. Its simply a great story, well told.” —Big Comic Page

“Jupiter's Legacy 2 #1 is a sensational opening issue, reminding us why the first volume was such a hit. Quickly getting us up to speed, the creative team gave us a narrative that was both thrilling and exciting, leaving us with a cliffhanger that is bound to leave readers wanting more.” —SnapPow.com
