I just bought and read the second issue of Flight, and it was incredible. It's the same incredible quality of the first, but it's got to be twice as thick. I think I enjoyed the stories more, too, overall. Douglas TenNapel's comic made me laugh out loud at least three times, now I have to go buy up all his other comics (when I have some money). I mean, just read the summary for his new book "Earthboy Jacobus":

Chief Edwards retires from the Modesto Police Department a lonely man. On his way home, he hits a flying whale with his car, opening the beast's mouth to find a boy from a parallel universe named Jacobus. Chief discovers that a society of insect monsters want to kill this boy due to a mysterious virus that grows on his hand. He becomes a father figure to the boy and trains him how to survive insect monsters by becoming a great American ass-kicker.

What's not to love about something that weird?

Anyway, I think you should get Flight Vol.2 if you like comics. If you don't... then what the hell is wrong with you?
