Doom Patrol, Vol.2: The Painting That Ate Paris

I loved this. The League of Dada were priceless. Their shenanigans can be summed up by Mr. Nobody's timeless comment, "So we stole a painting. So we turned a policeman into a toilet. Worse things happen every day in El Salvador." Also worthy of note are the Withnail the Warlock character, some imagery that clearly prefigures 'The Invisibles' archons, the hilarious yet strangely touching final section (which asks whether the mind rules the body or vice versa), and brief cameos from 'normal' superheroes like Superman looking baffled and freaked out by everything.

Mostly very good, although I feel the title story dwells on the wrong parts of the story, and the Decreator story is just a rehash of the Scissormen stuff from the first volume. I feel like the art has improved dramatically as well here, although I can't say just what changed - it seems cleaner somehow.

That was definitely weirder than the first one. I got lost a few times, but so did all the characters, so I didn't feel bad about that. Once again, the art helped clarify and amplify the wild story. And I love that Crazy Jane.

Can someone get this lint out of my navel?

Grant's Doom Patrol has had a great reputation, but to me strange nonsense doesn't entertain or enlighten. I shouldn't have wasted my time.

Another classic... I'd give the Brotherhood of Dada five stars easy, same with the robot/ape awesomeness...but the end of the universe eyeball brought the average down slightly.

UGH YES FOREVER

Same comments as the first volume.
