MINISERIES CONCLUSION
After last issue's shocking ending -- Ben is left alone to face the Antichrists! Did we mean for that to be plural? Will Ben die before having sex with Laura, the Gym teacher? Why does God let bad things happen to good people??? FIND OUT IN THIS FINAL ISSUE!
If you've read any of my past reviews then you know that I usually go into a lot more detail of each issue that I review. With the End Times of Bram and Ben #4 I made it my goal to hook you in by just recapping a few pages; as a matter of fact I only covered 7 pages of this epic 26 page conclusion. It's going to be sad to see this series end but I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the incredibly tasteful ending that is clearly an opening for a follow up series. Read Full Review
The End Times of Bram and Ben was superb all throughout. Asmus and Festante have a lot of story threads to tie up and they do so wonderfully, leaving an ending that feels like an ending. No loose ends are left dangling and all reveals feel true and satisfying. The artwork is as great as the story, showing evolution from just three issues ago. I loved this book so much that the only negative is that it ends. If that's the worst thing you can say about a book, well, you know it's something special. The End Times of Bram and Ben #4, and the mini-series as a whole, more than earn 5 out of 5 stars. Read Full Review

Overall, this has been a fun miniseries, with an excellent laugh-per-page ratio and a pretty solid story. It's not a big stretch to imagine this title garnering a cult following over the months, and while it's worked very nicely in single issues, it's sure to spread out well as a trade. We need more funny comics nowadays, and with its potent mix of irreverence and intelligence, "Bram and Ben" is sure to enrapture. Read Full Review
The End Times of Bram & Ben #4 is a fitting finale that does enough to entertain its core audience as the writers set-up the next mini-series for these characters. Recommended. Read Full Review
