    IGN - Benjamin Bailey Feb 6, 2013

    As stated in previous reviews, Juan Ferreyra is a god amongst men who draws our darkest fears and uses his sorcery to haunt the dreams of the sane. It's crazy (get it) how good Colder looks. This issue starts a little slow, with Declan in a grocery store, but once you get to the realm of madness you'll drool and moan with admiration. The creatures, the buildings, Nimble Jack; all of it. It's truly horrifying. Ferreyra's art makes Colder a book you simply have to buy. You'd be crazy not to, because once Colder grabs you, it does not let go. Read Full Review

    The Fandom Post - John Rose Feb 6, 2013

    The penultimate chapter in this story arrives and brings with it the chance that Declan might have been better served having never woken up as not only has he found himself reigniting the voracious desires of Nimble Jack but his actions have put into jeopardy the woman who looked after him out of kindness and who now finds herself being repaid in a most horrible way. With time seeming to run out as his body temperature drops Declan has one chance to save the woman as a form of penance for his actions"but all the while the ultimate predator patiently stalks from the shadows waiting for the perfect moment to strike and feed.

    AIPT - Sean Feb 7, 2013

    His art reminds me of Clive Barker at his best. Things which disturb you on a deep, psychological level. Beasts which have too many eyes or hands. It always warms my black heart to see new monsters, and Ferreyra draws the best I've seen in many moons. Read Full Review

    Colder #4 is a mix of filler, exposition, intense scenery and a set up for the last installment. That's not to say that the series could do without this issue, because nobody should be missing any of this series. There is so much left open to keep readers on the edge of their seat, even with all of the exposition. Even with my small problems with this issue, I'm still beyond excited for the next issue. For fans of horror in any style, Colder is a crazy ride, and deserves your full attention. Read Full Review

    Den Of Geek! - Ethan Lewis Feb 11, 2013

    Though the plot was a little lacking in this issue, the ending completely made up for it. I'm really excited to see what kind of havoc Nimble Jack creates in our world. I love Nimble Jack, and there's so much for him to feed on in our world! I also like the element of tension surrounding Declan's temperature. By the end of the issue he is 29 degrees Fahrenheit and quickly approaching zero. I've already gushed about the wonderful art, but let's gush some more. It really helps to carry the story and it makes Colder #4 a visual buffet. Read Full Review

    I don’t think this issue knocked it out of the park as much as the previous, but I do think it sets up the series for a strong ending and that’s very important. Whatever hiccups this issue may have had, I’m sure they were in favor of something awesome in the final issue. If you’ve been reading the series there is no reason to stop and if you’ve missed out on this book then get caught up! It’s really good and I cannot wait to see where the ending goes, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say I already had a guess. Read Full Review
