Overall, as a fan of the original Orphan Black series, Im left wanting to read more. Although one might be able to feel where the story will go if theyre caught up on the television series, its still intriguing to see how everything will play out with the assistance of Beth and Mika from the start. This is only supposed to be a set six-issue miniseries, but one can hope if it goes well we might see more.

Its revealed that the goal is to use Belial as a vessel for the devil himself. Then the story seems to change its mind and reveals that Vanessa Ives corpse will be brought back to life and used as the vessel to the devil. Now this is far more interesting, and because it will make the plot interesting, we can predict this will in fact take place. Despite being predictable, it still makes for a very intriguing storyline because we have no idea how this story will play out. How will Ethan handle seeing his love being brought back to life as the devil itself?

Fans will be grateful to live in this well-crafted world again thanks to these three artists and their unique hand in this piece. Its set to be a four-part miniseries but Im hoping that this wont be the end of this trio.

Luckily the storyline is so fun, it's enough to carry the overall series, and I will be picking this series up for the next issue.

Just when you think the story is over, after the last few pages of advertisements, it's made known an additional three pages has been added to each edition, and each variant has a different storyline. This is there way of getting readers to buy more comics and confuse you further about whodunnit. As much as I want to know where the story goes, I don't think I'm will to shell out the extra funds for even my favorite of comics.

Overall, I have to admit this started out being my least favorite issue, being unfamiliar with the artist may have played a part in this conclusion, but as most things often do, it grew on me. Im able to appreciate the Nickelodeon of the 90s-style nostalgia and I can see long time DC fans appreciating Lobos appearance as well. I wouldnt mind seeing him again, as long as we can see more of Harley and Lobos hilarious adventures, and their oddly romantic connection.

Overall, the storyline didnt take me where I thought it might go, but thats whats great about Doctor Who; Does anyone ever really know what to expect from a Timelord? Rhetorical question. Of course not. If youre a Doctor Who fan, its a must-buy. If youre not, it might not hold the same nostalgic significance it holds for others.

I was really looking forward to this series, but Im more interested in the original storyline from the television show than the one here. In the show, whats most intriguing about this character The Ghost is the double life he leads and the romance. It had a Clark Kent and Lois Lane-type of vibe that worked. However, this new series lacks both the mystery and the romance that the series did so well with.

If youre wondering whether or not you should pick this issue up, Id wait for the collection bundle if youre truly a fan. This particular issue doesnt offer much but a slow build. We can only hope that the issues to follow will offer more and be worth the wait.

There is also a special appearance by (and spoiler alert) the Hardy boyssurely to bring about a spin-offand the t issue ends on a literal cliffhanger. It will leave you anxious, wanting more, and to see where this adventure will go. This new series will be a great gift for grade five or six and above, but overall fit for the entire family, including you comic-loving adults.

I will keep reading, and even recommend, but onlyif you're a fan of the show. Since the two are a pair, readers will have the maximum Riverdale experience by staying up-to-date with both, and hopefully a lot of the missing storylines will be revealed and questions will be answered in this comic.

Rugrats is a perfect read if youre simply picking it up for the nostalgia-factor, but also perfect and age appropriate, if you're hoping to find a comic to introduce to the little ones in your life.

The issue is wrapped with a cliffhanger that will surely be interesting to learn more about in the upcoming issues. There is a sense of a potential love triangle looming among the pages as well. While this comeback didn't feel necessarily compelling, I have hope future issues will be more commanding and charming.
