Humberto Ramos is a master at action and that is evident in the energetic imagery used throughout this issue. The characters look fantastic and there are some beautiful details in every page. A great looking issue from start to finish. Read Full Review
All in all, Strange Academy #6 created a drastic shift in tone that you just were not prepared for from this book. This is a dangerous world these kids have been brought into, and now everyone better understands how seriously that should be taken. Read Full Review
The ending has me curious on what will happen next, if I get a Doctor Strange movie reference in the next issue I may role my eyes because I know exactly where they may go if it does happen.

This issue borders right on the edge of greatness, particularly if previous ones have succeeded in making you care about the kids.
Hey, I went into this expecting something bland, but I actually liked this issue. Wasn't amazed by it or anything, but it was a good time.
Bad action in the beginning. Don't even know what hit Shaylee in it.
Oh no no... Doyle???
