Grandpa Judd and Loretta are close to a reconciliation of sorts just as the crazed and deadly Arborist closes in on their Chinatown hideout.
The more I read this series the more questions I have and the more excited I get for the next issue. Even with my small gripes I still find myself looking forward to these reviews every month. I can't stress enough that Lemire is at the top of his game with this story and everyone should be reading it. Read Full Review

It's still an exciting showdown and one that provides a notable pivot in the story's momentum as Family Tree #5 feels as though it could go in a dozen different directions. Read Full Review
Damn...that's one badass Grandpa. I'm really enjoying the dynamics amongst this dysfunctional family. Family Tree is getting better and better with each issue. Here's hoping it can sustain the quality.
Very well-paced issue.
Getting better. First off, really appreciate Phil Hester's art alot more now than I did in Issue 1. Lemire really is a king when it comes to dialogue. It feels so real and weighted, tree-morphing and killing aside. His dialogue between Judd the Grandpa and Josh is very heart-warming. Loretta, yeah I can see why people don't like her. But her kid is turning into a tree, that is probably how I would act too.
Loretta's section with Judd is reveals the situation that both her daughter and her run-away husband are facing, and also explains Judd's wooden hand. And then, ACTION. The action has returned, and it was very enjoyable to say the least. The dialogue not only in the quiet moments but the action scenes as well, very good.
it's ok but i feel that the story has more potential, especially knowing it's lemire
This comic doesn’t blow my mind but I’m also not like dying every time I read it, which is nice.
I just think this is a really bland indie book.
