Oct 28, 2018This issue gives readers a rather fun, dark, morose and complicated story in this ninth chapter. The story by Wolfman throws in a few twists that no one saw coming. The art by Mhan feels like a 1970s comic in the best way possible. Altogether, this issue changes the game for all the characters involved, and I can't wait to see where it goes next.

Oct 24, 2018RAVEN: DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS #9 does well in adding a new layer into the story, giving readers another reason to be enticed. Collaboration between the artist and colorists creates a spread that shines above all the other pieces in the series thus far. Read Full Review

Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield
Oct 25, 2018This series started a bit slow, taking way too long to kick off Winters' plot, but now that it's going strong it's the best use of Raven's character in years. Read Full Review

Comic Book Bin - Philip Schweier
Oct 24, 2018Only three issues remain in the 12-issue limited run. If the series becomes an ongoing, there is a great deal of opportunity, if DC can cultivate it properly. Some of the characters have yet to impress me, but they've barely been introduced, so there's still time for them to develop, if not here, perhaps elsewhere. Read Full Review

Oct 24, 2018Believe it or not, we get some story progression... even if it isn't all that interesting. There is a brief nod to Raven's private life to remind us that this is her book. Art remains strong. Read Full Review

ComicBook.com - Nicole Drum
Oct 24, 2018The same issues that have plagued Raven Daughter of Darkness for its entire run continue in #9. It is bogged down with exposition and the continued "mystery" of whether Baron Winters is on the up and up while Raven is tangled up in uneven portrayal -- the issue is overwhelmingly lackluster and unnecessarily tedious.

not loving it... but at least it is pulling at me a little bit... I plan to read at least one more... from a base of 6, this gets a rating of: 7. +1 because: I'd like to see SOME of these characters in their own book

There's just not anything here to make me care. It feels like we've been in the same place for months now. This series suffers from pacing problems and lack of character.
