    I cannot sing enough praises about this comic run. Barbara Gordon: Breakout has been exciting, it’s been mysterious, and it’s been constantly compelling. This issue in particular puts it into perspective just how much danger Barbara is in, which makes me very excited to see the next issue. Read Full Review

    Barbara Gordon: Breakout #4 deepens its central mystery, as Babs struggles to survive in Supermax even with the help of a new friend. The final page hints that things are about to get even worse, which I didn't think was possible. Read Full Review

    Barbara Gordon gets an ally but at what cost? Tamaki throws a major swerve into play with the ending of this chapter. Nahuelpan & Bonvillain showcase the wear and tear of this endeavor with solid art. A cloud of mystery is hovering over Barbara Gordon that no one will want to escape from. Read Full Review

    Aug 12, 2026

    The art is great as always, the lighting is moody and intense, and the action visceral, but for me right now, it doesn't make up for the fact that very little of consequence happened this issue outside of the final page. Read Full Review
