    I've collected Witchbladeoff and on since Marz took over on the series, but I could never get back intoit the way I had before his start. With Seeley and Bernard though, I'm actuallyexcited to read Witchblade again forthe first time in years. This book is the top notch quality it should be andthough some long time readers may be turned off at first, I think the largerappeal for the series is there as long as the book ships on time.

    Witchblade #151 is the testing ground for the new creative team. This issue tests if they will sink or swim. I am happy to say that so far they are swimming and the series has not taken any dives in quality. Tim Seeley continues to write Sara Pezzini as one of the best leading female characters in comics. Bernard impresses as a new face in the industry. Both of these two making for a strong new creative team for the series. Read Full Review

    IGN - Joshua Yehl Jan 4, 2012

    The other half of that team is Diego Bernard, who turns in an issue full of gritty settings and detailed characters. He creates a chilling vision of Chicago, and not just because it is winter time. He develops a dark mood for a murder scene, and a busy and crowded environment at the local night club. To draw Witchblade, an artist must have an affinity for drawing busty women and horrifying monsters; Bernard delivers both in spades. Read Full Review

    Newsarama - Lan Pitts Jan 5, 2012

    The story's direction isn't bad, but it feels overcomplicated, like a completed puzzle that still has a few extra pieces. Bernard's art, though, is top notch. It's still weird to see Sara in this light again, but his attention to detail is strong and Sara's new world looks pretty good. I know it will probably take a while for Seeley to find Sara's groove, but this wasn't the first impression I had wanted. Read Full Review
