Reactions and Reviews: Issue 1
In this 4th season novel, a tunnel-raised girl, now a photographer, returns when she learns she's going blind. Vincent stops denying his love for Diana. Good psychology, characterization.[2]
Issue 2
Images 2 is subtitled, "A Whisper of Hope... An Echo of Despair" and was published in April 1991 and contains 147 pages. The artist is Molly George.
Second in a series exploring the relationship (sexual and otherwise) between Vincent and Diana has Diana blaming the growing bond with Vincent for her sudden mental instability. Interesting premise and fascinating new character, Robert Wills. Contains questionable scene where Vincent and Diana lose themselves in their passion on Catherine's grave.[3]
Reactions and Reviews: Issue 2
In this first-rate 4th season novel, an unscrupulous re¬¬searcher trying to find the perfect murder weapon secretly experiments on Diana with a despair-inducing drug; Diana blames her state on the bond growing between herself and Vincent. Some sex, not graphically described. Not cheerful, but powerful and insightful; vivid new character Robert Wills, Diana's boss (also in love with her!), is (charmingly; unintentionally) reminiscent of Robert McCall of The Equalizer. Very good reading.[4]
