The Union #2....oh dear...

 As regards Marvel Comics The Union I am out. There is a slight improvement in the story for the first part of issue #2 but by the time we reached the final page I just tossed the comic onto a shelf.

Grist writes well with his own characters -Jack Staff, Mud Man- but the point of a first issue is to hook the reader. Make them want to find out more. By the end of that first issue we should, as readers, at least understand who the heroes are. When we learn a bit more in issue #2 it was more like the floppy penis you don't want on your wedding night. Disappointing.

At the price of comics these days I will not be getting The Union #3

This was the comic title I was waiting for....since last year. I guess as you get older a floppy  is all you can expect.
