A bold new direction for The Terrifics begins here!

Seeking to redefine the concept of super-heroics with bleeding-edge technology and targeted global problem-solving, Michael Holt and his team of outcasts are expanding their horizons to a bright new future.

The Terrifics is one of the true gems in DC's line and continues to impress me with each issue. The Terrifics #26 delivers a fun, engaging story that's beautifully drawn, and adds some intriguing new elements to the mythos. What more could you ask for? Read Full Review
Yang sets up a very interesting development with the arrival of a new team that could really complicate matters with The Terrifics. It feels like the arrow is definitely trending up for a book thats had a few rough patches but seems to be all the better from emerging on the other side of it. Keep an eye out for this arc and title in general. Read Full Review
A bold new direction for The Terrifics was right! This book right here is a nonstop adventure, and it goes a long way that this is a creative team which consistently pushes the envelope as to where these new adventures can take us, how the team will grow along the way. The Terrifics #26 started us off on the right note with the team doing the kind of work they should have always been doing and kicked off a new plot which takes us where we never thought we would go.

By the end of the issue, it's clear that Yang's narrative is going to go in some very interesting places. Given the rotating cast of characters that the Terrifics constantly interact with, it's nice getting a chance to refocus on the core group for an issue as a palette cleanser. But still, plenty of moments indicate that Stagg's up to something terrible and I'm excited to see where the adventure will take the team. Read Full Review

Sergio Davila delivers some fantastic visuals throughout this issue and the action is some of the best I've seen with these characters particularly. Davila does a great job of building on the character moments throughout and bringing them to life as the story builds to its finale. Read Full Review

Never let me down.I love The Terrifics.
Prelude:
The Terrifics is nearing it's end. As I jump into my backlog, let's see how this issue of The Terrifics goes.
The Good:
The Council shows promise.
The art is good here.
The Bad:
Maybe it's because I've been away from this book for so long but the dialogue isn't feeling natural to me.
Conclusion:
It's a good first issue of a new arc. The dialogue really holds this back, it just feels off to me.
A better Fantastic Four book than Marvels current Fantastic Four book.
