    Black Science is one of the titles I look forward to the most every month, and this issue did not disappoint. The multi-layered story is fascinating and bleak, and I can't wait to see where it all ends up. Issue #10 may not be the bestjumping on point, but the writing is strong enough that you can still pick it up and enjoy it, or track down the first 9 issues physically (many of which have had multiple reprints due to demand) or digitally to get caught up. Alternatively, the first trade 'How To Fall Forever' is already out, collecting issues 1-6, and the second 'Welcome, Nowhere' is coming out soon that will go right up tonext month's issue #11. However you do it,Black Science is definitely worthyour time. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jeff Lake Oct 29, 2014

    Despite the frequent squabbling, Matteo Scalera is still given plenty of room to flex his artistic muscles. His pages remain as breathlessly kinetic and expansive as ever, the artist again serving as the book's driving force. He does seem to favor certain poses and expressions, as they tend to repeat throughout, but in terms of sheer motion there are few that can rival his level of investment. Dean White serves as the final cherry to this loaded sundae of a book, his otherworldly colors and subtle shading meshing perfectly with Scalera's meticulously savage pencils. Read Full Review

    Infinite Comix - Jonathan Bryant Oct 31, 2014

    Black Science #10 wears its quantum mechanics themes on its sleeves at times, but it's the perfect premise for one man's redemption tale as a scientist and, more importantly, a father. Read Full Review

    Capeless Crusader - Cody Mudge Nov 3, 2014

    Black Science #10 succeeds in advancing the overall story of the series but bogs the down narrative with some frustrating character work. In a way this issue makes me really excited for the next issue as I believe that Remender will have many of the characters grow and evolve in the coming months as a few have already. Scaleras art wasnt the flawless masterpiece that it has been at times for this series but youd still be hard-pressed to find a more impressive visual feast on stands this week. Read Full Review

    Unleash The Fanboy - John McCubbin Oct 28, 2014

    Black Science #10 has a lot going on in it, and in attempt to cover all the bases this ultimately leaves us with a rather average plot. The issue is however saved by it's gripping climax, and wonderful art, and due to this it still comes recommended. Read Full Review
