Oct 15, 2015Naturally, I still find fault on the non-existing English translations of the Quebec-French dialogues uttered by LePage, though slowly and surely, I could comprehend the character's words. But the rest of the issue is one of the best yet. And finally, this fourth chapter illuminates the growing discords from within the imperialist's backyard while primarily highlighting Skroce's greatest artworks so far (and hopefully up to the next issues). It can be argued that this chapter showcases Skroce's re-emergence as one of the comic industry's top artists right now. Of course, Vaughan's scripts and some one-liners dialogues complement so well to the artist's magnificent illustrations. Once again, GO CANADA!!!! Read Full Review

Oct 12, 2015We Stand On Guard #4 is another fast-paced issue with a flashback that gives us a glimpse into Amber and Tommy's childhoods as refugees, followed by frantic action in the present day. Read Full Review

Oct 10, 2015Maybe I'm reading too much into it. But maybe that's not my fault. Maybe the consistently perfect art has receded into the background to let my mind wander. Pair that with an issue that just kind of goes with the motions, my mind is allowed to wander evenfurther. This, of course, is not theend of WE STAND ON GUARD's quality-not even close, but it needs to shake things up. I'm not even sure I care about Amber (our supposed protganist) yet, and everyone else is dying so quickly that we're not really given a chance to like them. I've never thought about it before, but WE STAND ON GUARD #4 makes me wonder if this title doesn't really have much to say or do, and is potentially just a showcase of what itsteam can do. They're all some of the best in the business, and I really hope they aren't let down. Read Full Review

Oct 12, 2015So go ahead, pick up this issue. If your weekly budget allows only for so many, I strong urge you to think twice on other ones and maybe let them take the dive so you can enjoy a double dose of Brian K. Vaughan this week. It'll be worth it, I promise. Read Full Review

Oct 16, 2015It's good stuff, and well worth reading, but as the six issue mini series is starting to wind to a close, thisissue is not a good jumping on point; if you're not readingWe Stand On Guard by now, then you should start at the beginning. However that being said, whether you wait for the trade or pick up the individual issues, this is a series that you simply must read. Read Full Review

Oct 08, 2015Now past the half way point of its run, We Stand On Guard #4 rumbles to life much like the giant machinery the Two-Four seek to use against their Yankee foes. Unfortunately, no amount of forward momentum or fantastic art can make up for the continuing lack of interest we have in the characters or their plight. Read Full Review

Oct 08, 2015The cover promised something that wasn't delivered and I think that pissed me off more than anything. I wanted robot wolf vs the real deal dammit. That cover is one of the coolest of the year and it wound up being the best part of this issue. We Stand on Guard is winding down with only two issues remaining and I'm not so sure all the questions have enough time to be answered in regards to the backstory of the USA vs Canada cause of war. It's going to be one helluva finale regardless of that however and I'm looking forward to it. Death to America! I take that back…. Read Full Review

Review by CBI'S Brian Lloyd We Stand On Guard #4 Writer: Brian K. Vaughan Artist: Steve Skroce Publisher: Image Comics Brian K. Vaughan and Steve Skroce are killing it again in issue 4 of Image Comic's We Stand On Guard. Critics and fans are foaming at the mouth for this series not oly because if the interest in Vaughn's work but because of the controversy surrounding the content of this book. The issue opens with Amber yet again fleeing the persistent Americans to a remote cabin in northern Quebec. Threatening to burn it down if these "motherfuckers" don't come out. Vaughan hits the parallels on all cylinders as if he was watching today's foreign policy headlines while writing his script. Steve Skroce's art work sets the to more
