As the team regroups, Chun-Bai suspects her team is not what it seems, and her suspicions might just get them killed. An unlikely force appears to save them, but will it damn them as well?

    Often, comics in this genre tend to be more action comics with supernatural and horror elements, but that is not the case here.  DEVILERS shows that supernatural action/horror can have the strong emphasis on horror without losing that quality.  This is solid action comic, but it is an excellent horror comic.

    This comic continues to get better each week as it now begins to wrap things up and prepare for what should be a pretty epic finale. While the backstory featured isn't the most enthralling, its significance sets the stage for an action-packed issue six. It's impossible at this point to not finish out the series. Read Full Review

    The issue is a bit slow to take off, but when it gets going is as good as it has been and by the end it is back to full throttle excitement. Getting to know Chun-Bai better was more than welcome and she is given one of the coolest arcs out of the group; her evolution is sure to be a huge part of the rest of the series. If that doesnt get you excited then Rex returns at long last, a character I was very keen to see much more of. Fantastic characters, a brilliantly dark and morbid world to enjoy and a great plot keep The Devilers on my must read list. For those late to the party, I have been describing it as similar to the BPRD universe without 20 years of Hellboy history for newbies to have to get through. Read Full Review

    The Fandom Post - Josh Begley Jan 1, 2015

    The Devilers suffers from a lack of focus, and each issue makes it worse. The idea is interesting, and the art is strong, but the story is aimless and more often than not contrived. As always, I hope that the next issue will be better, but I'll be glad when the series ends. Not recommended. Read Full Review
