- Writer: Anthony Del Col

Nancy Drew & The Hardy Boys: The Death of Nancy Drew #2 picks up immediately following the first issue’s cliffhanger ending which revealed the not-so-surprising twist that Nancy Drew is still alive. While the first issue of the series was presented from Joe Hardy‘s point of view, issue two shifts to Nancy as she explains the circumstances behind her “death.”
The Syndicate obviously wants Nancy dead, and now that both Joe and Frank know she’s alive (although Joe is still steamed that his brother has known for weeks), the trio set out to discover the truth.
While filling in the details of how Nancy faked her death, Nancy Drew & The Hardy Boys: The Death of Nancy Drew #2 doesn’t offer much more information about where the mini-series goes from here. There are several panels with our detectives looking to the Bobbseys for answers without luck, but our intrepid trio do turn up a lead in a “Barber” with ties to the Syndicate and perhaps the answers they seek.
