I think maybe I was expecting a little more intrigue in the family, kinda like the first book, and this one is a lot more about the war- although there is, of course, family drama going on too. I am enjoying reading more about th characters, it's just not grabbing me like the first one did...

I am not a big comic book/graphic novel person so the Easter eggs don't hit me. I like how they pull so many names from different cultures in to the mix: Ronin being a Samurai without a master, Thanos being a Greek god, Gomorra being, well, Gomorrah.
