JUDAS #1 offers an interesting portrayal of Judas, humanizing the man behind the betrayal of the Son of God. The story is steady, enthralling, and well-suited for the atmosphere the comic creates. Read Full Review

Straightforward writing that belies a complex tale of human emotion given depth by gorgeous artwork. Read Full Review

As the story progresses, this may well change, but for now we have Judas #1, which is stunningly beautiful and effective, and has me intrigued to see where it goes next. Read Full Review

Judas #1 is the beginning of a fascinating look at the Biblical character that's well-worth taking a leap of faith for. Read Full Review

For my money there will never be another story about Judas and Christ's relationship as good as the musical Jesus Christ Superstar, but Judas #1 comes real damn close. Read Full Review

Judas takes the classic character past the end of his story and shows the reader a conflicted villain questioning whether he ever had a choice in what we was. Read Full Review

I am pretty sure that every issue going forward is going to be an interesting read. The story they are telling and the way they are telling it is unique and done well enough that this series has potential to be an absolute hit. Read Full Review

I felt like this was a great, somber kick off for this miniseries. I highly recommend you pick up Judas, and lets see what happens next to the betrayer of the savior. Read Full Review

Loveness writes a powerfully sympathetic protagonist in "Judas" #1 with superb, stained-glass art stylings from Jakub Rebelka. Read Full Review

The creative team does a great job setting the series up so that anyone can dive in and enjoy it, regardless of how knowledgeable they may be of Christian lore. Come for the unique premise, stay for the absolutely stunning artwork. Read Full Review

Regardless of your religious beliefs, and assuming you're at least passingly familiar with who Judas is (as in he's the dude who betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver, which led to the Crucifixion), then you'll be able to appreciate the comic's study of the man who sold out Jesus, and the effect that act (whether preordained or not) had on him. Is this a man deserving of forgiveness, or redemption? Has he been unfairly judged by people in the two thousand odd years since the betrayal? I'm looking forward to seeing how the series handles these questions in the coming issues. Read Full Review

I definitely recommend Judas to anyone. Even those with no interest in the actual story of the betrayer will find themselves intrigued by this telling, and eager to find out what happens next. When you sell the life of the Messiah, can there be forgiveness? And is forgiveness worth the cost you might be forced to pay? Read Full Review

If this is just four issues as the cover alludes, I'll likely finish reading it. I didn't particularly expect much from it, and I got about what I expected. It's a character and story that people want to add to, but so much has already been done with it that finding a new path can be extremely hard to do. If you can put aside your religious beliefs, you might get some entertainment from the story, but for the most part, it feels like a cliff notes version of the story of Jesus, starring Judas, with some dope artwork.

If you are not a Christian and just looking for a story, you may enjoy it more than I did, but then again maybe not. If you are a Christian and have knowledge of the Bible, then you probably wouldn't be a fan.I can hold on to the hope that later issues will redeem the comic, or that I misinterpreted the author's intent. For now, I am not pleased with the four-part limited series. The Bible is a beautiful book that needs to be handled properly. “Judas” flops in my opinion. The creators aren't necessarily untalented, but just produced a comic that I personally didn't like. Read Full Review

Lovely art, and a story that's asking just the right questions. Judas is not a two-dimensional backstabber, but a deeply conflicted many who wrestles with the meaning of Jesus. It doesn't try to cram an edgy, skeptical position down the reader's throat, but invites the reader to look at "The Greatest Story Ever Told" from a new perspective and ask their own questions. Really looking forward to seeing how this story unfolds.
