Doctor Fate #4

fatecover4 Doctor Fate #4 has hit the stands, some reviews below :) (Also a ComicVine Cover of the Week!)

Multiversity Comics

"The fluidity of [Liew's] style is mesmerizing, with the layouts and characters’ points of view always deserving of second looks to observe the care taken in creating this book."

The Fandom Post

"... I’m loving the more personal approach that Levitz and Liew are taking with it so that it can find its own voice and stand out from that point of view."

IGN

"...a lithe and charming monthly read... [a] beautifully rendered artistic display"*

*to be artfully selective :p

BamSmackPow!

"There is a charm and originality to what Levitz and Liew have done reinventing Doctor Fate that for some reason makes this book completely irresistible... Doctor Fate is everything that the DC You relaunch was supposed to be about without any of the garbage that has killed so many other titles before their sixth issues."

Weekly Comic Book Review

"With well defined characters and a special attention to the sacred and mundane, Doctor Fate #4 is an example of what DC is doing right with DCYou."

Infinite Comix

"... the art has never dropped below beautiful... Interactions between Khalid and the Helm itself are beautifully colored, with huge swirls of power giving weight to the incredible power hidden in both Khalid and the Helm."

Some interiors below! :)
