    Overall, The Resistance #5 is an exciting penultimate issue. The story by J. Michael Straczynski is hypnotic. The art by the creative team is remarkable. Altogether, an issue where our protagonists realize exactly who they are. Read Full Review

    The penultimate issue of one of the most original and ground-breaking superhero universes out there, it’s going to be exciting to see where this series, and the larger shared universe, go from here. An incredible human story which tells a vast and epic story. There are exciting ideas and concepts on show here, and this may well be the best origin story for a new shared universe. Pick this comic up, you won’t regret it. Read Full Review

    Deodato's art has its usual quirks and the narration can get a bit hokey but "The Resistance" #5 is a perfect example of how to tell a story that sets up others without sacrificing itself. Read Full Review

    The revolution in the Ukraine is amazing, another good issue. With that said, I've decided that I really don't like the layout style that uses extra gutters for no reason; they're just distracting, busy, and serve no purpose. They're awful, let's move beyond this gimmick, please.
