Fight Club 2 #1 Review: Was This Really Necessary?

Fight Club is considered by many to be one of the best movies ever made. It was a truly brutal story with one hell of a plot twist, and it took the film world by storm. The book, on the other hand, isn't all that well-known: while it wasn't bad by any means, Chuck Palahniuk (the book's author), admitted that the film is the better version of his story.

There are some key differences between the two, with the ending itself being the biggest one. The film's ending was left relatively open, but the book's ending is much more concrete.

Fight Club 2, a new comic from Dark Horse, has the unenviable task of trying to continue the story of something that clearly had a definitive end. While there were plenty of questions surrounding the Narrator and Marla near the end of the book, they weren't the kind of questions that fans ever expected to be answered.

So, how does Fight Club 2 answer those questions - and, more importantly, has it successfully revived a series that already ended once?

In short, no...not yet, at least.

Warning: spoilers for the ending of Fight Club and minor spoilers for Fight Club 2 #1 follow.
