Unrelenting otherworldly terrors lay hidden in shadows of our world, but one man dares to stand in their way...in the name of science! Follow the harrowing adventures of Dr. Victor Crowe, an adventuring scientist, expert on the occult and all-around pulp hero as he travels the globe using advanced technologies to battle gruesome, supernatural horrors.
If this is the type of quality adventuring we can expect from Doctor Crowe, I sincerely hope we see more in the near future. This comic is tailor made for fans of Hellboy, with solid supernatural pulp action mixed with top-notch artwork. Read Full Review
You cant go wrong with Doctor Crowe,it's a wonderful pulp-inspired conceptperfectly fit for comics. Tell afriend and give your local shop the heads up that this is going to be a good one! Read Full Review
Overall, Doctor Crowe seems his most intriguing when we get to watch what he does and the critical result rather than hear his narration for what needs to be done. Its part and parcel to creating the suspense that these types of stories excel at. But given the relative success of the third chapter here, and the really curious design and set-up for Doctor Crowe himself, theres definitely reason for readers to return for more dark adventures.

The only problem I see with this book is that most of the time Doctor Crowe wins. Even when he loses he still basically wins. It's a fine line to tow with a character like this that stars in shorter stories with quick build-ups and fast payoffs. While the first issue was enjoyable, it's difficult to say whether I would read more. Because in the end, the stories end up having the same pacing and that formula wears on a reader over time making it less exciting and interesting as the issues go on. As for how it starts, it's entertaining and creates a character and world that feel at home in the world of comics. Read Full Review
Doctor Crowe is a concept we have seen too many times before and it is neither good nor bad, but somewhere in the murky middle lurking around complete a level of completely forgettable. Read Full Review
