Kill or Be Killed, Issue #2 begins with a tale out of One Thousand and One Nights. There are white columns on the outside of the panels where the story takes place. This goes on for four pages as the inside panels show the main character, Dylan, stalking someone and killing him. In typical non-linear fashion, the comic jumps back a day to before the Dylan stalks and kills the victim, which he must do every month or else a demon will kill him.
This is another long issue. It has about 36 pages of content and 12 pages of extra material and advertisements. In length, it's pretty much a double issue, like Issue #1. One of the added features is a write up of the film, Oldboy. I didn't read it because although I haven't watched the Korean film, I read the Japanese manga, which is 1600 pages long over eight tankoban volumes. I need to read more manga, but I'm continually caught in the cycle of new comics coming out every Wednesday. Issue #3 of Kill or Be Killed comes out today, and I look forward to reading it.
