Baltimore: The Cult Of The Red King #3

The tension of this book can fill a room because each turn of the page could reveal some unknown horror capable of killing all. Forget pins and needles, I'm on daggers reading this book because of the tension. Recommended. Read Full Review

The only character that seems a bit left out at the moment is Dr. Rose, but with a cast this big, there's no harm in that. By necessity some characters have to take a step back.

Baltimore: Cult of the Red King #3 shows just how far the series has come in five years, and will leave readers stunned with its final sequence. The stakes are higher than ever, and Mignola and Golden have not lost track of the thematic core of the story.

Even without this enormous cliffhanger, the issue gives readers every reason they might need to return for more. Read Full Review
