Because you demanded it: Volume Two of the critically acclaimed Sabrina the Teenage Witch series by Kelly Thompson and Veronica & Andy Fish! Sabrina saved the day-saved her friends, her family-the whole town of Greendale really, and she should be riding high. But things are never quite that simple. She's trapped in a love triangle, she's having trouble balancing the mortal and witch parts of herself, oh yeah, and she's being blackmailed. As if all that wasn't enough, while trying to help Radka and Ren with their...supernatural problem, her aunts suddenly starting to look like people she can't trust. What's a teen witch to do?!
'Something Wicked' is the blast of positive magical energy that we desperately need right now. It's so good to see Sabrina back in action. Read Full Review

There's no reason not to take the Nestea Plunge with this new volume now that Archie has re-issued it. If you're looking for fun, magic, teenage angst that's somehow charming and not annoying, then this is your comic. Dr. J gives it an" Read Full Review
But if it allows me to keep getting Kelly Thompson writing a character she was born to write for and Veronica Fish and Andy Fish drawing such luscious and dynamic pages, I'm going to be coming back as soon as I can for more. Read Full Review
Sabrina is back and better than ever, and by better, I mean she's in way over her head and I'm here for that sweet, sweet drama. Read Full Review
By the end of the issue, I definitely felt that it would have been a crime if BOOM! did not give this book a second volume to continue. Sabrina: Something Wicked #1 was worth the wait for the way that this creative team further immersed us into this world they are creating for Sabrina. Read Full Review
Everything about this book has the right amount of polish to it and the experience that comes from the team working on it in a previous book, which is expected. The end result is something that's very accessible to new readers but also provides more than enough for existing readers to sink their teeth into. It's a good looking book with some great designs across the board in the Fish style that I enjoy quite a lot while Thompson's script keeps it moving and flowing with a lot of things covered. This one really is just setting up for the run but it imbues you with a great sense of everyone that's a part of Sabrina's life and to want to see more of where it's all going to go. Read Full Review
Something Wicked #1 is set up to be a good entry point for new readers, but it's also deeply rooted in the last arc (the first volume is on sale now). Thompson starts off with the newest malevolence to threaten Greendale, but most scenes will have a greater emotional impact if you're familiar with the characters. That being said, you get more than enough context to orient yourself, and there is a short recap on the credits page if you need it. Read Full Review
It's a comic which packs a surprising punch in terms of deeper content to suss out and unpack. Read Full Review

If you like a John Hughes/Buffy mash up, this book is most definitely for you. Read Full Review
All in all Sabrina: Something Wicked #1 is a solid start to a new story. With all the introductions out of the way, I hope subsequent issues can bring a greater focus to the tale. Read Full Review
At the end of the day, Sabrina fans – particularly those who have already picked up the previous series – will find a lot to like here, although there's just about enough for new readers to entertain themselves with too. I'm hoping that once the series picks up some momentum and the more spooky aspects of the story are pushed to the forefront this could becoming something great, but for the time being this is still a serviceable beginning to the latest chapter in the life of everyone's favourite Teenage Witch.

I just like Sabrina okay.
I liked the first volume of this run, but I found myself not really getting excited about this new issue. The reason became apparent when I started reading. This is a pretty good comic. The characters are all nicely written and mostly fun. But that's it. It's not blowing anyone away. It's not Kelly Thompson's best comic out right now. But she's a great writer, so the competition is tough, I guess. This just feels like sort of an easy-reading, quick story and not something to really parse through, and that's okay. It just hampers my excitement, is all.
