Then why'd you give it a 9 and not a 10?
Is there a totally titanic termination in store for the Terrifics? Mr. Terrific and company team with the Tom Strong family in a final battle against Doc Dread, who's leveraging the power of a dark god to kill everyone in his path. With the fate of the Multiverse AND the Dark Multiverse hanging in the balance, it'll take a team-up of Terrific proportions to save the day. Just don't expect the group to escape unscathed when all is said and done...
The New Age of DC Heroes titles have been something of a mixed bag, but The Terrifics is the biggest success of that line. Although Mister Terrific denies that the team isn't a family, I predict that their inevitable reunion will demonstrate that the Terrifics are well on their way to becoming one. Read Full Review
Truly terrific time to read. Read Full Review
Perhaps this issue isnt quite as crazy as some that have come before. I admit it is not my favourite issue of the run to date. But it functions as it is meant to, and certainly makes one eager to see what happens next. Read Full Review
Both on an action and character level, this book is a big winner. Read Full Review
Viktor Bogdanovic's art is absolutely astounding in this issue. The level of detail in both the character expressions and the action scenes is amazing. I loved the art in this book immensely. Read Full Review
The Terrifics #10 was all the excitement you could ask for from this team, and from the Strong Family. Great dynamics, perfect boss battle scenario, didn't fail to throw in some science, and really put the team to the test when questioning where they could go from how this concluded. Read Full Review
Lemire continues to thrill with this title. Be sure to check out the latest issue of The Terrifics for fun, adventure, suspense and more! Read Full Review
Still, I'm optimistic for the future of the series. The core quartet continues to have a stellar chemistry, and their adventures will continue to be a fun reprieve thanks to all of the camp and unbridled joy that comes from having four science-y heroes continue to do science things.

The teams beat Doc Dread and his ally a little too easily, but Lemire isn't done making him a big player in the book. Upcoming solicitations tease a very fun upcoming storyline that serves as another tribute to the Fantastic Four. Read Full Review
It's the end of the world as they know it, but it's a fine comic book reading experience, with a lot of fun FF nods built-in. Read Full Review
A relatively boring conclusion to the running arc with the high points being noted as the team discussing their relationship, something I never thought Id enjoy more than the action or plot. Read Full Review
While this issue's big ending is likely temporary, it was clever for the series to lean into that The Terrifics haven't really formed any bonds during their weeks together. Sometimes, there's just no chemistry between people, and hopefully Lemire continues to subvert typical superhero team dynamics in the future. Read Full Review
Plenty of nice artwork surrounding the near total void of story. This series never found its footing, it's been this great-looking thing that has no substance to grab onto. Too bad, because the opportunities to make us care were evident. Read Full Review
Java makes a really good Doctor Do- I mean Dread. I hope The Terrifics stay together a long time.
What a perfect ending - But wait ! This isn't the end ! Yeah.
I loved this story. It was powerful and funny. It's make Mr Terrific shine. I'm waiting for the next step forward.
Cover - Nice I see the link now ^^ 1.5/2
Writing - Really like what lemire show us. Still the best FF story ! 3/3
Arts - I liked the art, even if sometime it's not perfect on the face of the characters. 2.5/3
Feeling - A great book. 2/2
Fast action and surprising turns. What is there to hate? NOTHING!!!!
Took me a month but ive finally read this issue but theres not much to say. Its very fun. A bit silly. The Terrifics finding out that Doc Dread is actually Java is almost a Scooby-Doo vilain reveal scene. LOL. But its good.
The Terrifics are no more! Great cliffhanger to a very good arc. Loving Bogdanovic's art, as per usual.
Gotta love The Terrifics, which is one of the very few series being able to competently combine relentless action, genuinely funny humor and lots of heart. So far, there's no single issue of the run I wouldn't like. It's great, and I can't wait for the characters to unavoidably reunite again. Hopefully Linnya will find a way to get the team together at last, seeing how much she actually cares in this issue.
Definite thumbs up from me.
"I want to be a superhero!"
Who doesn't?
Since issue 7 the Terrifics were a bit disappointing. What was once fun and exciting started to feel by the numbers. Coincidently, right when Metamorpho lost his powers the book seemed to lose its spirit.
But all signs point that issue 10 is bringing that lost spirit back.
The action is more exciting, Plastic Man is funnier and the interactions between characters just seem more genuine.
Maybe it's Bogdanovic's art or maybe Lemire had a better idea for this arc's conclusion than the arc itself. I don't know. What I do know is that I'm getting excited again for this title.
I was kind of hoping this was the last issue...
I'm not interested in this team, so the whole break up at the end felt pointless. I guess this issue was fine? It didn't bore me to death, but I didn't care about what was happening at all. Java's story in the annual was good, so I'm glad that he's just a huge mistake in this issue, yet somehow still bests the team. Doc Dread is a parody of Doom but doesn't do anything particularly worth anyone's time on his own. Nothing to raise the stakes. Just to make people clap, for they know the character he is parodying. This issue has nothing for me, but it's a testament to Jeff Lemire's writing that I didn't hate it.
Ok story, didn’t really interest me but hey at least good dialogue, haven’t said that for this book in long time. Wondering where it’s going from here. Really hope that this shows us that Java is truly one of the best villains out now. Personally I’m more interested in the villain and could give two craps about the team/ former team. This book better shape up or wouldn’t be surprised if by April is when it gets cancelled
