Jeffrey O. Gustafson has posted an advance review of “Magneto Testament” #4 at the Jim Hanley’s Universe blog. Here’s an excerpt:
It has always been hard to wrap one’s mind around the sheer scale of the horror of the Holocaust, and Pak and [DiGiandomenico] find a simple and powerful way to translate that unfathomable tragedy in a two-page spread of inanimate objects that stops you cold. This is a book of subtleties – from the beautifully rendered use of Max’s powers to a jump in time represented by empty panels a la Brubaker/Phillips Criminal – mixed with scenes of the worst the human species has ever inflicted on its own, and it is a stunning, moving work.
