You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Feb 25, 2026A story like Skinbreaker runs the risk of rolling into a whole bunch of different directions that would be less than appealing. Kirkman and Company seem to be solidly, moving the narrative forward in a way that feels like it's going to continue in a primal direction that might be simultaneously familiar and novel at the same time. However, if they choose to move too far from the immediate stresses of the tribe, in question, the serial could get really tedious really quickly. Kirkman and Company definitely have a solid grounding with the first six issues of the series. Read Full Review

COMICON - Tom Smithyman
Feb 23, 2026In a series that has been dominated by amazing artwork, it’s nice to see that the story is finally landing with equal power. Writer Robert Kirkman pulls back on a lot of dialogue in this chapter, allowing what little he has written to land with greater impact. Read Full Review

Comical Opinions - Gabriel Hernandez
Feb 25, 2026Skinbreaker #6 proves Kirkman and Finch understand that the sharpest blade in comics is the one that cuts family ties, not flesh. In an era where most Image books telegraph their tragedies from miles away, this issue earns its brutality through character consistency and thematic courage, refusing to soften the edges of tradition’s cost. The waterfall confrontation alone justifies the cover price, delivering the kind of ideological cage match that lingers days after reading, while Finch’s visual storytelling reminds you why silent sequences still carry more power than a thousand thought balloons.

As great as Skinbreaker looks, the story is a repetitive string of conflicts that at first glance look meaningful, but that the reader ultimately can’t care about, since the book has never really shown the struggles the tribe has gone through and that the chief and former chief are now fighting over. At least we are introduced to a new color palette in a literally breathtaking underwater scene.
