    Mariko Tamaki's unique spotlight on the teenage lesbian Czarnian with a whole lot of issues has been a slow burn, but in many ways it feels like this issue is what it's been building towards. Read Full Review

    Crush's narration makes the book for me, and her plan to get free and find her dad is remarkably fun. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Sep 7, 2021

    Mariko Tamaki continues meandering about with Crush and Lobo, and while the issue looks great, nothing is going on storywise.  We are halfway through an eight-issue mini, so why does it feel like we have barely gotten started?  Oh well, I will hold out hope that the second half is where Tamaki will shine because I like both Crush and Lobo, just not Crush & Lobo.

    If I didn't like Crush before, I'm starting to like how she's reacting to everything. It's almost slapsticky in how ridiculous the situations get. Plus, Crush does it all with a purpose in mind. She knows enough on how to take advantage of a situation and present it in such a crazy enough way to work. Not that it makes her situation any easier, but it raises the stakes by a bit because Lobo's going to be one big challenge and she's going to have to pull out all of the stops.

    This is a good issue, but not much happens. Tamaki writes an engaging story, but I'm not sure we needed eight issues here.

    Not a big fan of Mariko Tamaki but I liked this issue. Great art, and I like how the story is progressing and Crush is going to confront Lobo.

    Reviewing the fourth issue of Mariko Tamaki making me regret wanting a Lobo comic. He's been around for a few decades now, but I don't know if Lobo will ever be used in comics again after all of these terrible stories.
