Laney Griffin has shouldered more heartbreak than one man should be asked to endure.
With his son's life and his own criminal innocence hanging in the balance, Laney must
take drastic measures to stay one step ahead. But as the captive werewolf emerges with
the full moon and Sheriff Nora Hughes' forces close in, the hope for survival looks
slim-for father and son.
Although the werewolf is not the main character in Curse, it never lets you forget how dangerous it is and can be. It can symbolize what we're all capable of when our backs are against the wall. This finale is one of the best single issues I've read this year. Curse is solid tale that despite some predictability, surges forward with pure emotion and unbridled horror. Read Full Review
To summarise, Curse is a perfectly paced story based around several intriguing, compelling characters, and manages to balance violence, drama and tension beautifully to weave one of the most impressive horror tales Ive read in a long, long time. Seek it out if you can, or make sure you get your hands on the inevitable trade. I promise you wont regret it. Read Full Review
There's no two ways about it – “Curse” #4 is a jaw-dropper that puts a tremendously focused cap on what was already a strong series. The art is terrific, and Rossmo's particular segment in this issue is one that will be remembered when 2014 is coming to a close. More than anything, “Curse” works to satisfy the two sides of its personality that it wants to hang its hat on. It's visceral and violent when it needs to be. And when it doesn't need to be, then it's packed with plenty of character and heart. Read Full Review
The final issue of this miniseries ends on a note that many readers will no doubt have seen coming; however, this in no way takes away from enjoyment of seeing Laney and Anton work their way by the story's conclusion. Read Full Review
I wrote last month that I thought that I may have known where this was going, but I was wrong. But that's okay, I didn't want to be right. However, I didn't want to be disappointed either. I really think that I made a good opening argument to why I feel the way that I do. If you need to be reminded, and aren't eager to instantly hate me for disagreeing with you, please re-read my opening. But I still wish this team all the luck and success. Maybe I'm the only person that feels this way. Read Full Review
Despite some inconsistencies throughout this comic series, Curse is a good mini-series that adds another layer to the werewolf mythos. The buildup to this ending is thrilling and suspenseful while the artwork, although inconsistent, provides great visuals for the overall plot. If you are a fan of the classic monsters like werewolves, this is a great tribute comic to read. Read Full Review
