    Harvest is one of those special comics where both the writer and artist are hitting their stride together at the same time and the result is a comic that is overall better than almost anything youre going to read this month. This comic aint for the kids or the light of heart but it should appeal to most any other readers out there. Read Full Review

    My recommendation: Pick this up when it comes out next Wednesday. If you can't get to a comic shop or your comic shop doesn't carry it then go get it on Comixology! I can't wait until the third issue! Read Full Review

    Multiversity Comics - Michelle White Sep 7, 2012

    Lieberman and Lorimer got off to a good start with “Harvest” #1, and this series keeps bringing the goods. The creators are making excellent use of the limited space afforded by a miniseries, crafting a hard-hitting story that's both smart and visually arresting and doesn't skimp on the character development. Most remarkably, the delicately-handled pacing is making this a series that doesn't cry out to be read in trade, even though I'm sure it will look great that way too. A miniseries that really exploits the single issue format isn't something you see everyday " and when the story is as complex and absorbing as the one that fills the pages of “Harvest”, the result is one truly accomplished horror comic.

    Crave Online - Andy Hunsaker Sep 11, 2012

    Lieberman is constructing a pretty involving story, keeping the kid-angst to an effective minimum and making us come around to liking Dane after the first issue painted him as such a walking catastrophe. It's redemption in progress, and the art from Colin Lorimer is greatly suited to it, with its very subtle colors within a mostly black-and-white look. It's a dark book both in subject matter and moody aesthetic, but Harvest is certainly a story worth your time to check out, should that pique your interest. Read Full Review

    Behind The Panels - Richard Gray Sep 7, 2012

    An intriguing title that might barrel through events too quickly this month, but perhaps because Lieberman is keen to get us to the bigger story he has waiting. Read Full Review

    IGN - Benjamin Bailey Sep 5, 2012

    Colin Lorimer kills it on art, just like he did in the first issue. This book doesn't have as many jaw-dropping pages as the last, but the ones that we do get are amazing. The first double page spread is bleak and cold. Dane's plan to get back at the people using him ends with a ghost, some gas tanks and a defibrillator. It's so cool looking that the rest of the book kinda pales in comparison. But hey, Harvest is a great looking, well written, indie book. We can always use more of those. Read Full Review

    Unleash The Fanboy - Edward Sep 4, 2012

    The ending is also highly effective. It brings together many of my points regarding Harvest. Its emotional, tied to both the story and the themes. Its something that's known to various characters throughout the issue, but denied to the kid (and thus the reader) right until the end. If you're looking for drama, suspense and a tiny bit of gore, then Harvest #2 has you covered. Read Full Review

    Harvest has me hook, line and sinker. This is shaping up to be one of the year's most refreshing horror stories. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Dustin Cabeal Sep 5, 2012

    Personally, I really enjoyed this book and find the story to be very interesting. I can’t wait to see what the next issue holds and that’s really the goal of any comic, to get you to buy the next one. There’s a bit of mystery, sci-fi and science all rolled up in one, but paired with fantastic art as well. If you’re looking for a book to scratch that creepy and twisted area of your brain then this is the book. Read Full Review
