    Eduardo Francisco does some stellar work here, as well. The bulk of this issue doesn't feature any costumed, super heroics, and it looks fantastic. His character work is expressive and dynamic. He never skimps on a panel, always finely detailing the world and shifting the view to keep things fresh and interesting. Captain Midnight #4 is great looking, from start to finish. As a pleasant bonus, this issue also happens to be a perfect jumping on point, so get on board, it's worth it. Read Full Review

    Captain Midnight is starting to get situated in his current situation. Having journeyed into his future (our present), we're seeing him adjust to the little things, which adds more human nature to the story. Joshua Williamson is able to flesh out this comic world with the supporting cast and the meet up with Skyman. The artist and colorist give an impressive debut on this series and it's all starting to feel like it's finding its groove. And it should be mentioned there's pretty a crazy cliffhanger ending as well. Read Full Review

    Captain Midnight #4 has a bit of a slow start but by the time the comic book reaches its climax there's a lot going right with an ending that easily shocked me. Recommended. Read Full Review
