Setting up the next issue.
And, we know what Captain Marvel wants to do as hers and Iron Man’s plans for Civil War II are clear.
So…
Overall, Civil War II #2 was another slow issue following FCBD Civil War II one-shot, Civil War II #0 and Civil War II #1. I would have expected witj Civil War II #2, effectively the 4th issue of Civil War II, that we’d be a lot farther along. There is no “civil war” yet afterall despite it feeling like its Iron Man vs. everyone right now. All we have are teases of things to come; more death and the like. Despite all that, solid art this issue.
A big death is promised next issue. Who will it be?
And, who is the Fallen? Who is the Accused?
More grim death coming, but the mystery is intriguing.
