I feel like the second issue of Space Warped is even stronger than the first. While the first issue set up to Star Wars knock-off set in a feudal land, this issue just gets to tell the jokes.
This issue, the guys are on their way to rescue the Princess… sorry, the Lady. There are funny flying birds, bird poop jokes and a much stronger female character than in the original Star Wars. Since Bourhis is playing the series for laughs, he doesn’t have to worry about making anyone likable. He doesn’t exactly exaggerate the original characters, he just amplifies them to an annoying level. And, at that level, everything they do becomes hilarious.
The art is crisp and fast, just like the first issue. Spiessert actually gets creative with his panel layouts this time and it confused me enough I had to reread.
It’s another solid, amusing issue.
