The strongest issue yet, filled with plenty of revelations to keep readers hooked and on the edge of their seat, Mirka Andolfo makes sure to fill it with just as many twists and turns while introducing a number of new mysteries. Where this story will end up remains to be seen, but hopefully it’ll continue on past the six issues originally planned for it, or future mini-series can be told in this universe she’s created. Even with answers being more forthcoming it feels like we’ve barely scratched the surface of the rich mythology that Andolfo has created here. The art is absolutely stunning and each page is beautiful. Read Full Review

And well you remember what Kreese said about an enemy…. Read Full Review

Mercy #4 is by far the goriest and brutal issue yet, and what an issue it is! Horror is a delicate subject to take on.

Mirka Andolfo has tapped into that vein and managed to find a great recipe for a good horror story. Read Full Review

Overall, I was extremely pleased withMercy #4. It felt like all of the hints and foreshadowing finally came together for an extremely satisfying climax. There are new plot elements that change the trajectory of the story as well. I'm glad I stuck it out with this series. It was never bad by any means, but the amount of mystery was beginning to get a little frustrating. With all of that out of the way, I'm back to being extremely excited to see what happens next month. Read Full Review
