    Overall issue #2 of Gamora is a great read from cover to cover. Even without reading issue #2 you can jump right into the story and feel like you're not only part of it but, have a sense that you know what's going on without Pelman dumbing down the content or spoon feeding you the story.

    Gamora is shaping up to be the science fiction epic nobody saw coming. The second issue opens with an exciting chase sequence and fleshes out new characters well. Read Full Review

    Black Nerd Problems - Jordan Calhoun Jan 19, 2017

    Artistically this series is absolutely gorgeous, beautifully capturing space travel, action on Ubilex, and even time as Gamora flew into the planet's atmosphere and felt everything slow down. The panel layouts and angles make for really great sequences, Andres Mossa is praising God through his color work, and overall Gamora #2 is a fun read that begins to show this book's range and takes a dialogue-heavy foundation issue and makes it feel anything but boring.

    Comics: The Gathering - Aaron Reese Jan 23, 2017

    The last two issues have enough story for an entire comic book universe, yet it doesn’t get bogged down by any one storyline. They all tie neatly and sensibly together. The introduction of Ubilex is exactly what a space-faring fantasy needs. It’s a unique planet with its own rules and society. We see the story threads start entangling by the end of issue #2 and things kick into high gear. The next few installments in this series are shaping up to be great action-fantasy. Read Full Review

    GAMORA #2 isn't as interesting as the first issue in regards to plot, but it continues to build Gamora's past up and that's important in an origin story like this. I'm disappointed both Thanos and Nebula failto make an appearance in this issue, but the fact Gamora mentions both of them at different times is a sign that their presence in the universe is important. I'm very curious to see where this story arc goes, what with Gamora's mission to find the final heir to the Badoon Royal Empire being temporarily halted by an approaching black hole and all. But, if some of these characters being introduced are going to be sticking around in the series (or eventually the Marvel Universe as a whole), I'm very excited for what's to come. Read Full Review
