Animal Man #15 is a winner book, and continues to stand out among the New 52 books, with its scary content, great characters, and Socks the Cat. Read Full Review

Animal Man is a book you need to be reading; there is no other way of putting that. It is written by a man whose career is only going to get bigger from here. It is penciled a solid industry vet, and is just a great book altogether. We are certainly ramping up to something big with the Rotworld event, and I can only imagine that it is going to get better from here. While I can’t say that it is the best thing I have ever read from DC Comics, I can without question say that is one the best things DC is currently publishing. Read Full Review

Animal Man never ceases to amaze readers. It ranks amongst the best books every month. In what should come as an absolute shock to nobody, Animal Man #15 is more the same high quality work that diehard fans have become accustomed to. This series is a must read. Read Full Review

I am very excited for the next issue, and I really cant get enough of the current team dynamic. I do not think that this will last long however, but I am having fun just going along on this journey with Buddy Baker and the rest of the gang. It still has that Stephen King feel to this current arc, and I can see some more twists and turns occurring that would make the master of suspense proud to have as his own. Read Full Review

The noose is getting tighter around the Baker family's neck, but Jeff Lemire may have provided our heroes with the pocketknife they need to save themselves. Save for a minor complaint about one or two characters not having much to do, this book is a strong entry into the Rotworld narrative. If you're following the title and/or the event, this one's a must have; however, anyone who's enjoyed this title in the last year will find something to like here as well. Read Full Review

Rotworld sets you in the middle of a high-stakes adventure story. Theres a great fight scene in the beginning, and a lot of major conflict is foreshadowed through the rest of the book. Its a solid issue that reminds us why we love LemiresAnimal Man. Read Full Review

There are only a couple issues left of the Rotworld saga and to this point in the story, Lemire has kept me guessing. Some of the surprises are welcome, others are simply surprising, but this adventure has been anything other than predictable. "Animal Man" #15 offers a little bit of everything any good comic book story needs from character development to action to plot twists. Furthermore, this issue delivers some significant developments for Rotworld and continues to further the development of Buddy Baker. Read Full Review

I've been a huge Animal Man fan since I first read the collected editions of Grant Morrison's seminal run and I'm really happy with the direction the book has taken. I hope this quality continues as it has here. Furthermore, if ‘Rotworld' as a storyline continues to impress it may rival ‘Death of the family' over in the bat-books as best crossover of the year.

It would have been a bold move for a title less than a year old to put its main character's child into the lead role, but Lemire's built a supporting cast that could have handled it. It would have played hell with the larger DC continuity, but with Abby Arcane in a similar lead role in Swamp Thing it could have made for absolutely necessary reading in what were (and are) already two of the boldest, most gloriously weird titles in the New 52. And that sense of urgency and necessity are exactly what seem to be missing right now. Read Full Review

A couple highlights only illuminate the general blandness of the rest of the issue all the more, though it seems like Lemire is getting back a touch of the momentum he's lost. Read Full Review

So, the book has succumbed to the weight of the Rotworld storyline. Although the art is enough to keep the reader engaged, the narrative is laden with heavy handed exposition and badly delivered “twists.” Although the plot is moving at a great pace, it is so utterly devoid of character work it ends up being a bland experience. If this is what Lemire has been building too since the beginning of the title, then it is a shame that it is so disappointing. Read Full Review

Steve Pugh, Timothy Green II, and Joseph Silver give us some terrific looking art from start to finish, but without an engaging narrative to hang it on, the whole thing feels a little hollow. Read Full Review
