Having seen the horrors waiting to break into our world, Ragman decides to join forces with Etrigan in order to stop them. But as Etrigan takes Ragman under his wing, the souls of Ragman's friends grow wary, fearing there may be more to Etrigan's actions. And when Ragman's attempts to stop the demons lead them to pursue a more personal target, Ragman must figure out whom to trust before all is lost!
RATED T
Worth the buy, as this creative team advances the character development in this issue, employing story devices that most would see in horror, but rarely in comics. Read Full Review
RAGMAN #4 has Ragman still under the dark training of Etrigan. As demons keep attacking, they also find a piece of Ragman's old life to tear at. Ray Fawkes delivers a tense story of dark magic, schemes, and regrets. Read Full Review
The horror elements of this series are being handled well and there's a part of me that wishes that this was being done as a black and white book, ala the horror manga that I've read over the years, to give it more power. But what we get here is so powerful with the fantastic color work that's done that it just elevates everything. Read Full Review

Ragman delivers real horror to the DC Universe. It serves as a nice companion to The Demon: Hell is Earth, and not just because Etrigan pops up here. Between titles like this and last October's DC House of Horror, the publisher has been expanding its spooky comics and I really hope this becomes a trend. If this book is any indication of what we can expect, I would love to see more. Read Full Review
This series continues to struggle to find its footing. The bogged-down storytelling along with the under-utilization of the art teams skill set make this a disengaging read. Read Full Review
We see some of Ragman's cool new powers, otherwise this miniseries continues to crawl along, stretching a couple of issues worth of story out to six. Might make for a nice trade collection, when it's all done. It's certainly compelling from a visual standpoint. Read Full Review
The issue ends with a mildly creepy visual (albeit one that feels copied from every horror movie out there). But nothing can save a comic that so grossly misses the central point of its lead character. Read Full Review
I thought it was easier to follow than the last two issues. The visual was nice, but very intrusive and hard to follow until now. It looks more streamlined and logically placed for easy reading and understanding. The narrative also takes a different turn, taking more time to actually explain what's going on and what happened since the last issue. It feels more grounded and the sense of urgency upon hearing that Frank's family is in danger really shows. A nice little book overall, neither overrated nor underrated.
