You become part of the fabric of the story and you see all the things she can clearly see about herself that are pushing others away but you also empathize with the want to be your own true self. All of this makes the horror weirdness, when it eventually comes, even more powerful and it elevates the whole book into something really special. |

There is an undertone throughout that feels a little too “ripped from the headlines” familiar, in a way that pulls me out of the story and makes me worry that the survivalists are going to end up being more evil and hate-filled than the clawed creatures. It's such a cool setup that I hope I'm wrong. |

All of this is happening, of course, while there are sword fights and spaceships. It's spellbinding and I loved every nanosecond of it from start to finish. |

The Krmn Line is a timely and relevant read. It has sex, lies, secrets, and space presented in a raw, unfiltered reality show-like way that turns the cameras on human behavior and the way we use media, social or otherwise, to manipulate both the people who make it and the people who consume it. It's an out-of-this-world story that feels grounded in our current social dilemmas and shines bright in the comic landscape for being brave enough to tackle such uncomfortable but socially relevant issues. |

The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos #1
Jun 29, 2023 |
The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos #1 is like listening to a jam band just starting to find their groove. All the songs and musical ideas bleed into each other and you have no idea what you are listening to or what is coming next. You come away from the whole thing with a smile, enjoying the experience and looking forward to the next time that group of artists gets together so you can see what they cook up. This book feels exactly like that, if you could condense it, add some rad colors, and get it to adhere to the pages of a comic book. |

The Sacrificers continues to be weird in all the best ways, and between the stellar art and existential dialog, I hope this book is around for a while because this is the flavor of weirdness the world needs more of. |

Under The Influence (2023) #1
May 10, 2023 |
Under the Influence #1 feels timely and real in a way that it could be happening anywhere that people with a WiFi connection are doing things for views and those who don't quite get it are getting mad about it. |

Under The Influence (2023) #2
Jul 10, 2023 |
Where the tension and action of Under the Influence shines is in its carefully curated dialog. The whole book is full of layered conversations that feel as manufactured and polished as the biggest influencer's aspirational posts about coffee or pampas grass. I hate this book… and I love it. |
