It's just a continuation of the first volume, and is still just as entertaining. Perhaps more so, but either way it's consistently good and worth picking up.
Hawkeye (Clint) just can't keep himself out of trouble, and Hawkeye (Kate) is just there to make things more interesting. Really, they haven't changed since the first volume but that's a good thing: The humor and entertainment of the series relies on their dynamic and personalities bouncing off. Though, Hawkeye is fleshed out a bit more with the introduction of other women in his life, from the "Work Wife" the Black Widow to the ex-wife Mockingbird and to the friend-girl Spiderwoman, who all happen to watch some random scantly dressed woman come up and kiss him. The Hawkguy is a simple character but the women in his life make it more complex. Character interaction is a huge thing for this series, and it's touching when even PIzza Dog's interactions are touched upon as well as his interactions with the residents of his building. Speaking of PIzza Dog, he gets his own issue and you wouldn't believe the story you get from something without words. Because he is, you know, a dog...
The art is just as minimalistic and it still fits perfectly. There is one issue where it does become more vibrant, to fit the atmosphere of where they are at the moment; however, it doesn't sacrifice its minimalism so it's still good. Hawkeye is currently the only book that I can think of that can pull this off, which is a good thing.
I recommend the buy, along with the first volume of course. It's not necessary, strictly speaking; however, a lot of themes and story lines are carried over so it's very much so not recommended to skip volume one. If you are good at picking up on details reminding the reader, then it's not an issue but I can't give you a good reason to skip it, bro. Honestly, just buy both volumes, and 3 and 4 when the come out.

RFID label stuck on a page
Seller stuck a high-tack white label over the UPC code on the back cover and I could deal with that. But I’m reading now and just found an anti-theft RFID label (also high-tack) stuck to a page about 2/3 of the way through the book. Unacceptable.
