Manifest Destiny Vol. 2: Amphibia & Insecta

This volume picks up after the events of the first one the Lewis & Clark's group has expanded a little by picking up the survivors from the fort.  But are these new characters going to help or hinder the expedition remains to be seen.  This volume slows down the expedition quite a bit by having the boat get stuck on the river, the symbolism of the arch is back, & to top it all off the group has been split in two.  Clark is in charge of the group that has made it to the shore while Lewis is in charge of the group that has remained on the boat.  There is a giant frog like creature that is preventing them from continuing on their journey.  On land however in the woods a blood thirsty foe awaits not as deadly but just as gruesome.  There is also a glimmer of back story to who Lewis & Clark really are & that they may not be as wholesome heroes as we are meant to believe.
