Reception
[edit | edit source]In the August 1996 edition of Arcane (Issue #9), Andrew Rilstone was ambivalent about Foxbat Unhinged, saying, "If you are running the sort of four-colour campaign that can cope with the injection of some serious weirdness, this book is certainly worth a glance. Whether it is actually worth spending [the money] on 30 pages of large type is another question." Rilstone concluded by giving the book a below-average rating of 6 out of 10.[1]
In the September 1996 edition of Dragon (Issue #233), Rick Swan called the book "a brisk action-stuffed adventure that captures the zaniness of early Marvel Comics."[2]
