Commanders in Crisis #1 is an event story for a new superhero universe built (and built well) within the space of a single #4 comic. If you like superheroes at all, you owe it to yourself to buy, read, and love this comic. Read Full Review

Commanders in Crisis #1 is a great start to a big new universe. Trying to introduce such a huge plot and a cast of characters in the first issue is hard to do, but the team is able to achieve this. Not only that, but a fair amount of the plot is relevant to today. Read Full Review

Commanders In Crisis #1 is a great twist on the event comic, featuring the kind of storytelling that has helped the superhero genre last throughout the years. Orlando, Tinto, and Cartenueto clearly have a deep love for the genre and know-how to shape it to their ends. I highly recommend this issue for comic fans old and new. The former will enjoy the new takes on old tropes while the latter may find some of their favorite heroes in Crisis Command. Read Full Review

Commanders in Crisis #1 reads like the comic book equivalent of a doctorate dissertation in superhero comics from writer Steve Orlando and star-making turn for artists Davide Tinto and Francesca Carotenuto. It's the first chapter in an epic saga that doesn't neglect character in the midst of its multiversal scope and also leaves room for fluid action, clever concepts, and moments that will make you smile or shudder. This is while basking in the glow of a cast that is truly inclusive, who I can't wait to see overcome monumental challenges in subsequent issues. Read Full Review

If you're a fan of Steve Orlando's body of work, you'll enjoy this latest endeavor for sure. If you're not a fan, I'd recommend giving the first issue a spin and see if you have the tolerance for it. It's an interesting start to a 12 issue mini-series if nothing else. Read Full Review

Do we need a brand new super hero universe? If it's Commanders in Crisis, I'm going to go with “Yes.” Read Full Review

The first issue of Commanders In Crisis could have played-out in a much more savvy series of something like 6 issues. Clearly, Orlando and Tinto have places to go and things to do with a plot that has a great deal of places to be beyond the first issue. If Orlando can settle-down into a steadier, less manic rhythm with the series in the issues to come, Commanders in Crisis might turn into something interesting. As of right now, its way too much, way too soon.  Read Full Review
