May 30, 2023Torrent #4 doesn't hold back with the no holds barred superhero fight scenes. This issue is like a side quest as Crackjack must fight through the world's greatest heroes, and she's severely outmatched. That said, the creators show nothing can stop a grieving mother who seeks justice in any way she can. Torrent continues to take chances in the best of ways pleasing anyone who liked Image's other excellent take on heroes, Invincible. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
May 31, 2023Michelle continues to march her way to her destiny. Guggenheim has given himself a real challenge in giving the climactic completion of the first arc next month. Michelle is seriously compromised going into the big climax. It will be difficult to frame the showdown at the end of the opening arc with the kind of intensity that hes managed to find in Michelles battle with the rest of her former teammates. Guggenheims done a good job with the series thus far, which suggests a sharp understanding of pacing and intensity for Michelle. Theres every reason to think that Guggenheim is going to maintain the right form through the end of the first arc of the series. Read Full Review
