It's nice to know that Lucy Claire has a Buffy-like lineage of Werewolf hunters in her background, but the deep background of Lucy's world isn't where the strength of Upchurch's story lies. Lucy's personal journey and the paths of those who get pulled into her life are much more interesting than the background, cast as they are into a world of bewildering danger immersed in darkness. Focussed as it is on Lucy Claire and her friends and her recent checkered past, the fourth issue of the series plays to the series' strengths. Read Full Review
If there is any major drawback to the issue it's with the character herself. She spends much of the issue recovering from her wounds, only to discover upon awakening that the NEW Wolf Hunter wasn't killed as the gang believed. A drunkard adds enough salt to the wound for Lucy. If she believes her children are out there I can only hope that is what finally forces her to shake off her self pity. The events in Bristol were possibly meant to draw her out, hopefully she can make the most of the opportunity. Read Full Review
