Red Mother #2 was another dramatic addition to this series. It may only be two issues in, but I’ve already found myself eagerly awaiting the next installment of this series! There’s no doubt that this is one of the most stunning and stylistic series I’ve been reading as of late. Combine that with a chilling plot and consider me sold.

The first issue introduced us to Daisy and her boyfriend, Luke, who is now among the missing. Now we get to see how she’s been coping with everything…and hopefully learn a bit more about who or what this Red Mother is.

Red Mother #2 is every bit as chilling as the first issue in the series. Though perhaps with a slight alteration in tone. Daisy is still in a fair bit of danger – though that fact has become less clear, as time takes her away from the events that took her eye (and her boyfriend).

It felt like a lot of this issue was focused on Daisy trying to deal with her trauma…but at the same time there’s this highly disturbing undertone to the issue. Perhaps that’s because we know the story is far from over. That and the fact that there is very clearly something supernatural surrounding these events. A fact that Daisy has yet to admit to herself.

The cliffhanger conclusion of this issue has left me so curious and eager for more. It isn’t at all what I expected. It’s still highly disturbing – of course, it is. But it also feels much more tech-oriented than I would have anticipated, and I rather like that surprise.

There are some really strong themes here, and Jeremy Haun has done an excellent job of blending them and building up the tension along the way. This tale of Daisy’s has only just begun, and I have a feeling things are going to get a lot worse before they get better.
