Kito embarks on his quest to recruit members into the newly formed Mind Mgmt.
Dark forces aim to prevent that from happening in order to keep the world dumbed down, and knowledge lost. Can Kito get to the new recruits in time or will they be lost to the forces of chaos?
While the first issue was mind-bending, the second issue is more straightforward as Kito focuses on recruiting members for the coming war against the Blank Tablets, hell-bent on dumbing down the world. It’s a very enjoyable book as readers see Kito interact with the new recruits Denny, and Chiyo. It’s a well-paced book full of wacky action, but what makes the book most interesting is the character interactions between the new Mind Mgmt and the coming threat that threatens the world.
What makes the book most enjoyable is the art. Matt Lesniewski is an underrated cartoonist. His ability to illustrate action, and deliver expressive gesture work and action while making the mundane look fantastical is exemplary. Coupled with his art style, it makes the book undeniably pleasing for anyone that is a genuine comic book fan and cartoonist who appreciates the craftsmanship displayed in the layouts. The lettering is well handled and placed, given that Lesniewski does both the lettering and art. Bill Crabtree compliments Lesniewski’s linework, elevating the art beautifully. I recommend this book for any cartoonist that likes stuff that’s outside of the usual crop of comics that’s on the racks, especially outside the superhero genre. I love superheroes, but this is welcomed and a worthwhile read for new comic book day.
