The Terrifics...terminated! The team has called it quits and gone their separate ways-with less-than-terrific results. Plastic Man meets his estranged wife and son, now developing his own plastic powers; Metamorpho is still stuck in his human form as Rex Mason, unemployed, unqualified and going broke; Phantom Girl's stuck in an arranged marriage back on her homeworld of Bgztl; and Mr. Terrific hunts the escaped Doc Dread, who travels the Multiverse collecting alternate Mr. Terrifics for murder-sport.

    DC has seem to catch lightning in a bottle with this series. They have found the exact right combination of characters, writer, and artists to produce a truly wonderful reading experience. I just hope that DC appreciates what a gem they have in this title and allows the magic to continue unimpeded. Read Full Review

    Jeff Lemire is leaving The Terrifics in March to close out his time in work-for-hire, but it's not clear yet if the series will continue. I would advise DC to let the run stand on its own because I can't see anyone else equalling this level of quality. Read Full Review

    Lemire and Bogdonavic deliver another great issue of THE TERRIFICS. The team has separated, but splitting up doesn't mean everyone gets what they wanted. Add the continued threat of Doc Dread and the Terrifics may have to reunite to save themselves... but can they? Read Full Review

    As a big fan of the Multiverse, I'm really excited about Lemire fully exploring the Earth Mister Terrific finds himself on. It should make next issue a lot of fun on a title that never fails to deliver the goods. Read Full Review

    Black Nerd Problems - Mikkel Snyder

    Jan 02, 2019

    Yet even with the dour perspectives, Lemire and Bogdanovic capture just as many moments of levity in their artwork and dialog. The quips and visual gags are still very much on point and cement the series as a joy to read. Read Full Review

    The Terrifics #11 is a great jumping-on point for any new readers or anybody else that has happened to have fallen off this series. I personally really loved this issue. With the team broken up and gone their separate ways, we get to dig a little bit more into their personal lives and feelings, which Jeff Lemire excels at. The art is great as well, and I am looking forward to seeing more from this team. Read Full Review

    Geeked Out Nation - Jideobi Odunze

    Jan 02, 2019

    The Terrifics #11 was a good start to this new story arc. There was a lot more depth given to these characters and the hurdles they have had to climb since the first issue. This time apart was the perfect opportunity taken to explore what these guys really had to look forward to on their own. Some have something worthwhile to turn back to, others not so much. It should be interesting to see who is willing to jump back into the fire when the call comes. Read Full Review

    ComicBook.com - Christian Hoffer

    The Terrifics has really spent a ton of time showing how much the superheroes dislike each other, but it's nice how this issue establishes how much of their own self-worth is wrapped up in being superheroes and with each other. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Reggie Hemingway

    The story grinds to a halt while every member reminisces on the things in their solitary lives that sucks. Also: Dr. Dread puts together a villainous team whose names will be forgotten almost as quickly as their introductions. Read Full Review

    More character development! I wanna see more of Luke and Plas, Phantom Girl, Michael Holt, but im still finding it hard get attached to Metamorpho and his girlfriend. Well, Jeff Lemire still has many issues in the future to make me love them! (The art is SO Greg Capullo, its weird! But great weird!)

    The Terrifics is one of those books I almost forget is on my pulllist but is a far more enjoyable than my other team books (FF and Justice League Odyssey). Loved the Capullo esque art and every individual team members arc was an enjoyable read. Excited to see the team back together on their own terms in the next few issues.

    Not every issue of The Terrifics has to be action oriented, since aside from it and its comedic tone, Jeff Lemire does wonders with 4 main characters. They have personalities, personal lives and problems, all this issue strongly focuses on. All four of them deal with drama way less significant than destructive villains and multiversal monstrosities, but not any less interesting to the reader. I love diving into their struggles to see what kind of characters they are, really, and how being so different one from another helps them to be a solid team. Brilliant comic.

    Now that the Terrifics are no more, this issue spends more time showcasing each character's life and emotions, and it does a wonderful job at this.

    "Tomb Raiding?" Well, this issue was Dreadfull. I'm sorry, I had to. The Terrifics are no more. For now, it's just the team as the book itself have been avoiding the ax and I hope it will continue to do so. So with the team gone, each of the members is trying to get on with their lives. It is not going well. Mr. T discovers that he might be actually missing his "family" and that having them around is helpful in tough situations. Phantom Girl is experiencing "wonders" of being part of the royal family and Rex can't find a job. Being a superhero doesn't look good on a resume. And Plastic Man learns that it's hard to reconnect with an abandoned family. Combining all that well-written drama with Mr. Bogdanovic's art and you've go more

    I don't like this issue at all. It's stupid for a man as intelligent as Michael to go alone. For what prove himself ? I'm kind of sad that we don't see the Strong's familly anymore. This a harsh manner to tidy them in limbo. Cover - Something of the old time. But I'm not fond of it. At least their is a link to what I read inside 1.5/2 Writing - This transitional issue wasn't a very good one. The part about Rex isn't original. Only Michael & Plastic man piqued my curiosity. 2/2 Arts - The art is not bad, nor that good. Their is funny or nice picture yes. But a look of pics without background. I don't believe in Phantom girl passage at all. Seem to weird. And didn't succeed to show another world like the last time we see her planet. 2/ more

    It was an ok issue. Started out awful but by time we got to last third of the issue it got better. Mainly the dialogue with the other terrific members was eh. Felt kinda bored. Hope the creative team can find a way to make this new vullianious team last.

    This all feels a little trite and hackneyed, I don't think we're seeing anything particularly unique about any of the characters.
