    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff Jul 7, 2023

    Lemire is incredibly patient with the story. Theres clearly A LOT going on in Phantom Road that doesnt meet the surface of the panel, but hes allowing it to slowly reveal itself over time. And hes letting it happen without any kind of narration. The story will get where its going in time. Just let the readers enjoy the disturbingly slow weirdness of it all. Its a good time.

    Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez Jun 6, 2023

    With compelling progression for our leads Phantom Road #4 is the best issue of this series thus far. The mystery of what is going on is made better thanks to the addition of a third lead in Agent Weaver. Her story going on in parallel to Dom and Birdie created a greater investment in the story Jeff Lemire, Gabriel H. Walta, and Jordie Bellaire are telling. Read Full Review

    This issue, in particularly, borders on the edge of being too quick of a read, with little progressing on both the character and story fronts. Read Full Review

    AIPT - Colin Moon Jun 6, 2023

    Without a central theme to ponder, Phantom Road's slow and ponderous nature feels empty and dissatisfying. Read Full Review
