    Multiversity Comics - Walt Richardson Apr 18, 2013

    This issue was the shot in the arm that Asmus's arc needed — unfortunately, it's the last issue of said arc, but that doesn't mean the issue is any worse for it. The first scene is exciting and intense, and probably along the lines of what readers have been dying for since the first issue. While the wrap-up aspects of the issue quickly pull the excitement bar down a bit, the issue does leave new writer Andy Diggle in an interesting place. And, as he has been since it began, Martinbrough is the book's secret weapon, delivering page after page of excellence. Martin-bro, anyone? Read Full Review

    When all is said and done this was a strong ending to the second arc and for the first time in several issues, I’m excited to pick up where the story left off. Although I went into this issue with the mindset that it might be my last, I’m really glad that I read it because it reinstated my faith in the story. Read Full Review

    Redmond pulls another one over on the FBI in this action packed ending to the second Thief of Thieves story-arc. Plus, a gruesome (and a bit hasty) segue into next month's issue! Read Full Review

    Geeks Unleashed - Chris Romero Apr 19, 2013

    Through his meticulous artwork, Shawn Martinbrough has yet again managed to deliver intense imagery and a cinematic, adrenaline-rush feel to the book's action sequences. Hop along the Thief of Thieves train if you haven't yet; you're in for one heck of a ride. Read Full Review

    Geekality - Dave Christian Apr 17, 2013

    The artwork is well done and helps to tell the story well. The numerous scenes of action and violence are well portrayed. The writing by James Asmus is strong. The story has multiple items happening throughout the issue, and the art and story seam together well to keep things straight. The book is enjoyable, although it may take a few issues for a new reader to catch up on the happenings. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Nuts - Jef Mendoza Apr 20, 2013

    It's a pretty intense transition issue but lacks in focus. There are a lot of balls being juggled around and the plots and characters don't move as much. Redmond and his son get out of the jam in the opening and then fall into another at the end. A new villain is introduced in gruesome fashion. And the FBI are still running in circles.
