  The artwork is good " clean, strong colors, and a fine battle sequence that was fun to read through. The only complaint " although it is a big one " is that in the end, Lois really kind of got the short end of the stick. Read Full Review

  In what has become standard fair for most Flashpoint tie-ins, I'm left with my pants around my ankles since this mini concludes with a "o be continued in Flashpoint #5" note. As it stands, Lois Lane and the Resistance isn't a complete, standalone story, forcing you to pick up Flashpoint #5 to find out how things play out. But let's be honest with ourselves, the chances of Flashpoint #5 elaborating on the Resistance's plight outside a few throwaway panels is slim to none. That series has already bitten off more than it can chew. But to get back on point, as a series, Lois Lane and the Resistance hits a few highs, but is mostly made up of lows. This final issue isn't awful, but it won't make you fall in love with this series either. Read Full Review

  This was a series that started off with an interesting viewpoint but didn't manage to hold onto it for long as it went down some more predictable and less interesting paths. I like Lois Lane as a character and having her as an involved participant of the war is a nice way to shake off some of the journalistic approaches that stymie her at times. But that didn't really factor in here and we instead had a fairly straightforward action story that didn't get a lot of its material really dealt with as the finale focused more on Brittania and Lane with a nice small dose of Hyde to flesh it all out. The series could have been a lot more, and could have gone more out of the box than it did, but it had its moments. Certainly not a bad spin, but the potential for something more is pretty obvious.

  As relentlessly unimportant as it began, this title may finally be laid to a deserving, much appreciated rest. Read Full Review
