    Those who are already fans of Joe Golem will continue to find enjoyment in this first issue, although anyone who is unfamiliar with the character could surely get a kick out of this book as well. Read Full Review

    I really loved the presentation of the comic. The creators choice to use dark colors complements the comics horror-ish vibe with contrasts when illustrating magical powers (bright orange and red). The mix of these two fit perfectly into the 1930s monster narrative which the comic is set in. Can't wait to see what becomes of Josef in consequent comics. Read Full Review
