Who is Elena Cooper? Take a trip back through time to witness the history of the mysterious matriarch of the Cooper Underground and the threat she poses for Jughead in the present day!
To no surprise to me, this issue is another perfect comic book issue that exceeds all of my expectations. There isn't one single thing lacking in this issue. Instead, there is plenty of dazzling substance that makes every second of reading it a real pleasure. Read Full Review
Jughead: The Hunger takes steps here to grow the mythos far beyond a simple gag. This could have been a cheesy book playing with the idea that one of the beloved characters from Riverdale is a werewolf. Instead, it's an incredibly strong horror series that is only getting better with some of the most terrifying werewolves captured on paper. So...when can we get that TV show? Are you listening, CW?

All in all, I am happy I picked up Jughead: The Hunger #4.The focus on Elena Cooper and her past was a welcome change to the story and helped flesh out this worldsuperbly well. I enjoyed learning about her past and what made her become the person she is today. The art continues to be okay. I think a changeup in the art may help the series in the long run. This issue at least got me back on board with this series and with a wonderful final page teaser has me on for at least one more issue. Read Full Review

If this is your kind of trash, I can completely understand why. However, it just came off as equal parts silly and melodramatic while I was reading it. I personally cant recommend it. Give it a pass. Read Full Review
