The art is fun, lively and visually thrilling. A great looking issue that delivers some great character designs as well as action. Read Full Review
Thunderbolts #4 finally gets around to introducing a threat that puts the whole team out of commission at the end of the penultimate issue. Hawkeye's dream world is everything he could hope for and more, but the nature, origin, and motivation behind the attack are completely unknown, which is a rough place to start going into a finale.

An issue spent on wacky hallucinations doesn't have a strong enough impact when it's the penultimate issue of a sadly short series. Read Full Review
The real tragedy is that this Thunderbolts title isn't still sparking the level of interest it gave off with its first issue, it's fine, but could be so much more. Read Full Review
The best part is the beginning, where I'm not sure what's going on. Then the "what" becomes clear, so I'm ready to move onto the "who" and the "how" and the "why." And I wait. And I wait.
I thought at least I'd get some hints from a final page reveal, but nope! Just a double- (or triple-) down on the "what."
The storytelling is pretty good, particularly in the art. But as long as the plot is just circling the runway instead of touching down, I really can't call this an above-average comic.
