    After a certain point, it can become difficult to find different ways to say the same thing: Mignola, Golden, and Stenbeck once again provide a terrific comic that tells an engaging story. I truly hope this team stays together in the long-term, because it appears that there's plenty of more Baltimore to come, and I can't think of any other creators I'd rather have penning his exploits for our enjoyment.

    Newsarama - Rob McMonigal Jun 21, 2012

    While Ryan Stegman does an awesome job with creating a Magnola-like setting and monsters that will terrify you in their abhorrent nature, he continues to draw his human figures with little to no expressions on their faces a majority of the time, which robs the art of a lot of its power. This is shaping up to be a good Baltimore story, but there's just not enough to hook a new reader. It's hard to recommend this one unless you are already a fan of the character. Read Full Review
