Artist Ted Slampyak and writer Jay Maeder are responsible for the strips in Volume 2, published between January 27, 2005 and June 20, 2005.

Jay Maeder reprises his role as tale spinner of all things Annie. Jay's Annie is just as honest, sassy and adventurous as the original who helped sink a Nazi submarine off the coast of the good old USA in the 1940s.

From one of the bright new faces in the indie comix scene comes a collection of vignettes and stories about a solitary albeit gregarious woodsman with a loose grasp on his own personal history and that of the outside world. He forms relationships with his inanimate surroundings and muses to a dead audience, specifically his bear rug Phillippe. His own tales eventually become entangled with that of the legendary Paul Bunyan, and the two become indirectly intertwined, illuminating the discrepancy between the character of the storyteller and the character within his stories. The lives of both Paul and Pete encounter such things as the questionable origin of an ocean and the desire for preservation of everything from a fallen bird to an overused expression that has strayed a stone's throw from its original meaning.

Waiting for him on its alien shores are the sights and experiences that will give shape to both his future and his past.
