THE IMITATION OF LIFE part five! Cyborg loses control of his robotic form when it begins attacking his friends and family at S.T.A.R. Labs. Trapped in a virtual maze of ominous visions and forgotten memories, can Vic Stone hack his way through the cybernetic gauntlet that is his own mind?
In conclusion, I hope this review has encouraged you to go out and read this new Cyborg series, as it seems with this issue and the previous ones, Semper Junior is really trying to return Cyborg to his roots whilst laying down new ones. Read Full Review
Cyborg #4 is a great read! From the first issue to this recent one its been truly a good time to be a Cyborg fan. I have to admit that when Cyborg first made the leap to being one of the League's members years ago, I was one of the few who was hesitant. However that was because I've always known Victor as a Teen Titan. I never thought of him in the same class as the “heavyweights” of the DC Universe. Thankfully I can say that I'm wrong! This issue and really the entire series so far proves just how powerful and dangerous Cyborg can really be, and exactly why he actually belongs on the League! Read Full Review
Cyborg spends the majority of this issue battling his inner demons and even some that were put there back in the Rebirth issue and while the concept seems kind of cool, the overall delivery of it just came off underwhelming and I found myself bored. There are some decent revelations in this issue, but nothing about what we've been dealing with previously with the main threat of this series so far. Read Full Review
At this point, Semper is going to need to find some way to make Cyborg a fun read. It's a little too all over the place and this issue doesn't instill any confidence that it's going to improve fast enough to retain readers. Read Full Review
This issue doesn't do enough to be good, though it's close with an emotional and impactful ending. Much of the plot has Cyborg running around fighting nightmares to pointless effect and the art is way too simplistic to carry what should have been such a visually stimulating story. Read Full Review
As a long time Cyborg fan, this entire series has been really thrilling and engaging, simply from an emotional and psychological aspect. Seeing Victor's struggle to identify his humanity within the machine has been so touching. Before this issue, every issue had been a 10 for me. This issue does indeed drop down to an 8 rating. It isn't a terrible issue by any means. But it does seem like a little bit of a pointless filer issue, and doesn't do the job of holding your attention that previous issues do. One major drawback of this issue is the art. The art in pervious issues has been supreme. On a positive note, the ending was great. I would still recommend this series to any reader, especially Cyborg fans. I hope they can pick it back up for more
It is not bad, it's just... meh. This whole series has been completely forgettable and unable to really grab at you.
