While Ben Sharp and his crew recover from tragedy, they also have everything they need to make Mindset the world's most influential platform. But, as Ben seems to achieve everything he ever wanted, from fortune and fame to maybe even love, he can't help but shake the suspicion that there's something more going on.
For my money, Mindset is one of the best books being published right now, and this is the strongest issue of the series so far. It continues to take an extreme look at the increasingly insidious nature of social media, but does it with such seemingly effortless flair that it's difficult not to find yourself completely and utterly sucked into the story from the moment you turn the first page of each issue. Absolutely essential reading. Read Full Review
Ben's plan works. Everything is perfect. So why does he feel so uncomfortable at times? Read Full Review
I would argue that Mindset is the very best comic series of the year. Each issue has left me thinking for days about free will and my cell phone use, all the while wondering what will happen next. In other words, I can't wait for issue #5 to come out next month. Read Full Review
Mindset continues to be pretty interesting but it's a difficult read in a way because of the nature of the story. It's one that would definitely be riveting in a novel and it works well enough here but the monthly format is what keeps it from being able to maintain the tension. This issue is all about showing more of what's going on as the company grows rapidly and Ben is finding himself more and more on the outside. It's solidly done and you can see how he's being manipulated and how it is eating at him as well. There are a couple of ways that this can all be toyed with by players unseen but that uncertainty is definitely interesting to watch unfold. Read Full Review
After three dynamite issues, Mindset #4 seems like filler. Read Full Review
I still think it's a wonderful series overall. I just think this issue felt a tad difficult to read in some parts. Like when he was talking to his parents or how they brushed off the friends death. It just didn't flow well. I still think it had a lot of good to offer and I'm ready for next issue.
