I've enjoyed the Doctor Spektor series so far because it feels unpredictable and is going in its own direction, but an issue like this just leaves me with my mouth open wondering what it is that I've missed. That could mean that in a couple of issues that this will either make perfect sense or I'll be even more lost. What we do get here is interesting and I can see it pulling together into a good narrative, but my mind is trying to connect it to what I know of the other revived properties and it's not making any sense there. That may just be my issue though. Spektor's side of the story here is confusing and unsettling in a lot of ways but I found myself enjoying what Abby was going through with the help she was getting and where that may lead, since it says a lot about her in how she handled it and who her guardian angel may turn out to be. If any of this is real, that is. Read Full Review
Doctor Spektor has quickly become the most important story in the new Gold Key universe. This is a series that will likely have repercussions from here on out. This issue throws it all out there, but the duel artists take some getting used to. Read Full Review
Doctor Spektor #3 wasn't terrible, and it was interesting despite its many flaws concerning what should have been included and what should have been left out. New information and new dangers complicate what could have been a grounded, simple story. “Less is more” and hopefully Waid and company realize this in the coming installments. Read Full Review

As far as the story goes, the premise of the book had never been fully realized before this Dynamite crossover interfered with the character development. The only elements of the occult in the book happen to be the spirits of the two recently deceased guiding Abbey through her paces. While the ending does hold some suspense, all the tension gets undercut by the lack of information helping the reader understand who Gail is. And at that point, no one really cares. Read Full Review
