    SciFiPulse - Ian Cullen Oct 3, 2023

    David Avallone delivers a knockout punch of fun with an issue that goes a little meta with Elvira telling him how to write the story by insisting that there should be no flashbacks. Add to that the two parody versions of Marvel and DC's iconic Superhero teams and you are in for one hell of a fun finale. Read Full Review

    The Super Powered Fancast - Deron Generally Sep 27, 2023

    Baal delivers some beautiful art throughout the issue. Not only are the visuals fun and beautifully detailed, but they deliver some genuinely funny visual gags that made me laugh out loud. Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff Oct 18, 2023

    Elvira seems to have made a very successful leap from her long-running 1990s indie comics series to a very steady contemporary run with Dynamite Comics. Having survived another series, Elvira will take on the xenophobic mind of a twisted little racist guy who just happened to write some very phenomenal and hugely influential horror as Elvira meets H.P. Lovecraft. The current page-and-panel adventures of Elvira continue to feel like a natural progression for the Mistress of the Dark as she continues a longstanding relationship with the comics page.  Read Full Review

    Comical Opinions - Gabriel Hernandez Sep 27, 2023

    ELVIRA IN MONSTERLAND #5 ends the monstrously fun adventure with a flashback, heroes to the rescue, and a battle to end all battles. Avallones pop culture magnum opus is a monster movie fans dream, and Kewber Baals art is fantastic. Read Full Review

    The Comicbook Dispatch - kcscribbles Sep 27, 2023

    Elvira in Monsterland #5 ends the miniseries with action and a LOT of meta jokes, serving as a parody of the huge blockbuster superhero films of Disney and Warner Brothers. This issue didnt have me laughing out loud like the previous issues have, but its still a fun ride and sets up things nicely for the next miniseries. Read Full Review
