It's a supernatural smackdown as Brimstone faces the Lord of Order himself, Doctor Fate! Joe has completely lost control over Brimstone, and Brimstone uses the slip in Joe's resolve to unleash his unrestrained Dark Matter power on the sorcerer. But what does Fate want with this sulfuric fury, and how does this help him with his larger plans for the magical community?
The Curse of Brimstone #9 was everything you could have wanted to see and more from this monster when let off of his leash. We learn some things about the monster within Joe that is so much more than what we are seeing on the surface. Read Full Review
This series is ending with #12 in March, and while it had some potential as a supernatural DC noir about a new magical powerhouse infecting the DCU, it lacked the compelling characters to make it truly click. Read Full Review
The issue feels like a big exposition dump, built around a fight with another superhero (here, Doctor Fate), which may or may not have long-term significance to the plot. Read Full Review

I don't know what Justin Jordan is doing nowadays or if he's even writing comics anymore. With the exception of a few legends, he has become one of my favorite comic writers working today. I'm not being hyperbolic.
In this issue of Brimstone, we see our protagonist go up against a legit DC powerhouse in Dr. Fate. Much like in DC's Damage comice Brimstone does a lot better than expected and in doing so got an audible reaction out of me.
This is another comic that works perfectly as a single issue. The art from _ is gorgeous and this may be the best rendition of Brimstone we've seen to date. The colors from _ also deserve special props. The flames look glorious. more
I feel like I skipped an issue somehow. This was a one minute read. Totally a waste. You get a cool fight where Doctor Fate's mask gets melted. I hope the last 3 issues can wrap up this lack of plot...
