Thanks to Netgalley for a digital copy in exchange for an honest review :)

This is a nice, fast-paced comic that follows Quin after he found out that he has a special power: Invulnerability. This time we are diving into the world of Voodoo. Quinton West is back as the would-be hero of his city New Orleans, battling against a new enemy who wishes to claim the historical land for himself.

I wouldn't say there is anything especially new in the superhero type story, but it is a really good read. I enjoyed this volume way more than the first one, even though it followed the same kind of formula: you have Quin struggling to understand what type of hero he could be, the bad guy (way more character development this time around), other cool superheroes with interesting powers, a mentor for Quin, a romantic interest and some interesting historical facts. The historical aspects really fascinated me, Quin is learning the history of New Orleans and Voodoo. An assignment that leads him to the mysterious Madame Adelaide who gives him a new task to fulfill for the good of New Orleans.

As in the previous volume, my favourite part of this comic was the relationship Quin has with his parents and their implication and understanding. I just love his mother and father so much. They are an important part of the story and they try so hard to help and understand him. There are some great scenes with the whole family and I just appreciate them so much.

I totally recommend this to anyone that is a fan of any type of superheroes. Also, if you want to read about a great family, this is the comic to try :) Enjoy!

First thing first, I love the art of this graphic novel. And the colors. And the overall aesthetic. Some pages I just stayed watching and taking in all the details. That beautiful.
With that being said, the story just wasn't it for me. It wasn't bad, and it really has a lot of heart, but there wasn't much development. It just jumped from one thing to the other without so much as a transition, specially in the first chapters. Maybe because it relies too much on what you know of the characters from before, but nobody really has much of a personality, and it felt a bit flat.
Anyway, I still like the story and the world created, and how it deals with social and racial issues. Stories like this one are important, even if I wanted a little more in the area of character development.

Quincredible is back!
I'm so happy to see again our beloved boy trying to make the city a safe place... but, I don't think this volume is better than the first one.
There is like a time skip, the plot is intriguing but it seems to lack of continuity.

In New Orleans there is an evil man that want to build a casino on lands sacred to African Americans. Quin has to stop it and bring stability and peace.
A powerful character is Brittany's aunt Adelaide. She uses her powers to show Quin the past and what they must do to preserve the lands. Thanks to Adelaide we can discover something about Voodoo (and I like it).

Art style and colors are great!

I have been waiting for volume two ever since I finished volume one! I loved the first one and the second one did not disappoint. Volume two finds Quin on a new adventure as an enhanced, but just because he is kind of a superhero doesn't mean the world as he knows it stops turning. While he tries to figure out his life and what it is that he stands for and how he wants to change the world, Quin still has to go to school and try to woo the girl of his dreams. But life is tough and its about to get tougher. Evil rears its ugly head and Quincredible is back at it with his somewhat mentor, Glow. Add in some Voodoo and some spirits and now its a party!

Very good continuation of the previous vol! I really liked seeing the new themes explored of Voodoo- something that I did not know much of before. There are also big themes at play that I think the author captured really well in the sense of a graphic novel such as helplessness on justice, parents feeling lost when their children grow up and the ever on-going battle against racism.

Can't wait for the next one.

I really wanted to like this but I found it hard to ignore the glaringly obvious flaws in it. Coming off the back of vol. 1 there seemed to be some kind of time jump that involved a briefly explored alien attack... or something? It was shown in confusing bursts at the beginning and not even addressed until close to the end, after which it ceased to be important (although to the reader it never was to begin with, it’s hard to find the importance in something you don’t understand).

The thing that really got on my nerves was that this alien attack thing granted someone voodoo spiritual powers that was somehow linked to time and somehow also mental (and no, I don’t mean mental like it was crazy, I literally mean it gave this woman mental abilities). If it sounds like I’m confused, it’s because I am. There was no actual boundary to this woman’s abilities, it just expanded when the story needed a quick fix.

Ironically, Quinn’s powers were completely static and that too was a problem. He was so useless! He had the super-ability of invulnerability yet it was completely useless because he couldn’t actually fight anyone. He constantly needed Glow who randomly showed up to fight the bad guy for him.

Speaking of the bad guy, the whole thing was ridiculously stupid. This supposed white guy who had the skin tone of a mixed race or South Asian person (he stood next to an image of his white grandfather and you could so clearly see the difference in their skin tone) was angry that his house was destroyed by the alien meteor attack (that wasn’t the fault of anyone at all) so he decided to build a machine that could do something probably bad but I’m not quite sure what it was. In fact, no one knew what the machine was or what it could do. Everyone just assumed from the start that it was something bad but there was no explanation given for what it could do.

Whilst I appreciate that this vol was trying to advocate for the importance of indigenous people, the stereotyping of the white guy as the bad guy just because he thinks black people should be slaves is pushing the same stereotypes that perpetuate the idea that all white people are racist and all black people should be slaves. And the entire positive message surrounding the indigenous people fell flat in the amateurish simplicity of the plot yet lack of clarity in every aspect of it.

After vol. 1 was only so-so I really thought the sequel vol would have every chance of improving. It’s sad to say it didn’t and that this comic series remains to be one of only middling success with always more potential that the mediocrity it manages to achieve.

I thought I would not understand this book as I was unable to read the first Volume of this series, But it gained my attention from the cover and the description. The story that this comic book conveyed was amazing it gave incite how the spiritual side of new Orleans and into some of the mindset of those who live there. I think that if anyone is interested in any of this would enjoy it, even those who wouldn't think about it would definitely enjoy it.

Learning about Quin and his struggle with his powers and how he feels about being a hero was interesting and place a good perspective of how a teen would probably feel while being in that situation.

I will definitely recommend everyone to give a read.

I enjoyed this second volume in the Quincredible series as much as the first. I like that these comics are about more than being a hero. The spirit of New Orleans is present in this volume with an honest look at that past for both the negative and the strength. Quin finds himself researching that history for school while trying to figure out why a casino developer needs such intense security. There wasn’t a ton of depth to the bad guy and his goal of reclaiming the land his grandparents ran as a plantation felt like a forced goal, but it does show that every situation has at least two perspectives. Quin is an excellent hero because despite his superpowers he does not yet see himself as a hero, that’s merely what he’s aspiring to be.

The first one was fantastic, the second one is AMAZING! TRULY AMAZING! Just can't wait until the next one!

Compared to the first volume, I enjoyed this second installment of Quincredible much more.
I appreciated the story, but even more the friendship, but especially the relationship between the father and son. In the first one had been highlighted little, here instead it was developed better.
The color plates are beautiful, as well as in the first volume.

4 Stars

Loved the storyline of the father and son relationship. Could hope for more action. I loved the first book better

I really enjoyed this novel. The art was beautiful and the story was so gripping I couldn't put it down. I loved the new characters and the inclusion of New Orleans traditions and history. It was just overall a brilliant read. I can't wait to read more and will be following these creators closely.

This arc was given to me in exchange for a honest review, all opinions are my own.

3.75 stars

This was amazing! I loved the art style and the layout of the story.
It kept me engaged and I couldn't put it down till I finished it.
Just like the first graphic novel this left me wanting more. Now I can't wait for the next one!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for the chance to read this graphic novel/book in exchange for an honest review.

Quincredible Vol. 2 picks up soon after Vol. 1 left off. Quinn is learning to be a superhero, navigate his new relationship with his parents, and deal with his unrequited love for his best friend. When a missing person case ties into a shady developer's plans, Quinn learns more about the past of New Orleans and how it will shape the future of the city and himself.

I am never not going to enjoy series like Quincredible, the down-to-earth moments and feeling of being self-conscious are what make Quin a good character. He's no trailblazer sure, but that's fine. This chapter in his life goes into how despite all of his best efforts, Quin is deeply affected by some of the traumatic events in his life. Not to mention things haven't really gotten easier for him, everything continues like nothing ever happened. He's still a teenager trying to do right by someone and its becoming a burden. So it's always good to see him speak with his parents about the mundane life troubles.

Then there comes the threats to Quin's community this time around, especially with a villain who is closer to life than people think. Real world villains today aren't driven that much by their greed nowadays, it's their pride and need to be admired. Devereaux despite his mixed heritage has more pride in his plantation roots and what it provided him to be the kind of person people admired. But it's his desire to be and stay extraordinary that makes him so super villainous. The fact he's willing to build over land people know has history of oppression and being obscured shows how much of a threat he is.

Everything here has great content, now if only some information was properly communicated. I've seen a few word balloons look out of place.

I read the first volume in this series in January and really enjoyed it! So when I saw this second volume up on NetGalley, I had to go and request it because I wanted to read more about Quin. In this volume, we learn a bit more about the history of New Orleans and Voodoo which I've always found very interesting to learn about. I have to say I liked this volume a bit more than the previous because of that addition and I kind of hope we'll see more of it in future volumes.

I am loving this series! After reading the first volume I couldn’t wait for the next installment. Well worth the wait! I’ll be getting this for the library.

I received an eARC through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I adore this series so much, I thought the first volume was so good, but the second tops that. It tackles so many difficult topics, gives important history lessons and wraps it all up in fast paced superhero action. If you haven't got into this series yet - you're missing out!

Quinton West is on a hero’s journey to save the people of New Orleans. In this adventure, he conquers an evil man who plans to desecrate the lands of his ancestors. The story line is packed full of action and intrigue while touching your heart with his interactions with his parents and his best friend, Brit. I am looking forward to Quin next journey as he learns to improve his abilities and tries to save the world.

The storytelling and graphics are out of this world. The novel combines the magic of the past with the future, in a well seasoned gumbo. Quin is a hero and a teenage trying to live life and complete his homework assignments. The swamp needs to be saved. He joins forces with old and new friends to take on a new evil. Can't wait for the next installment.
