Showman Killer, Volume 2: Golden Child continues the story of the all-powerful assassin/warrior. In Volume 1, he comes across the Omnimonarch's son, but for some reason, he decides to save the child's life and raise him. Of course, with futuristic technology, this is done in the blink of an eye. In this volume, you find out why he has feelings for the child and how the two are related. They are on the run from the Superheirophant, who has taken over control of the galactic empire.
I don't know how at such an advanced age, Alejandro Jodorowsky keeps putting out such quality work and finding such quality artists like Nicolas Fructus. Fructus is a board-game designer and animation specialist who Jodorowsky brought into prominence in the world of comics. Fructus had done comics before, but come on, Jodorowsky. Anyway, I loved the first two volumes of Showman Killer, and if I can pry a little money away from my computer build, I'll order Volume 3 when it comes out on February 7.
