Aug 19, 2026I don't think this is the end of the road for Clayface: Celebrity Dirt, but some course correction is necessary. The first issue convinced me there was something worthwhile here; the second has made that potential considerably harder to see. Give the supporting cast more depth, find a clearer purpose for the commentary, and let the strongest character relationships breathe. Do that, and this limited series may still have enough bite to sink its teeth into. Read Full Review

Love the art.
On first read I found the story confusing.
My guess is I would rate this higher if reading in a trade.+ Like • Comment -
