Klick Klick Boom! is the kind of comic a little disabled kid like me needed and an adult disabled me is happy to see on the shelf. It's fun, action-packed, and representative of people who don't often get a chance to shine. Read Full Review

Wagner and Dabbs conjure a brilliantly expressive first issue with some primal bits of characterization in a mystery that is carefully and painstakingly bound to the page. It may lack the kind of heavy text and rendering that so often accompanies a first issue, but Klik Klik Boom delivers more actual story in a single issue than many titles manage in three. Its a very promising start for Wagner and Dabbs. Read Full Review

From the opening page, there is a certain enigmatic feel that captures readers and never lets go. Wagner orchestrates a slow burn thriller brought to life by Dabbs and Wilsons amazing visuals reflecting the gritty and mysterious world of Sprout. This is a must-have on New Comic Book Day.

The story feels messy on the initial read, but upon further inspection, there's much more than meets the eye. Read Full Review

Casual readers would probably describe the art as ugly – this couldnt be further from the truth. Doug Dabbs work is beautiful in a gritty, grounded sense, with characters that look, move, and act like real people. Sprouts wardrobe resembles pieces that Harley Quinn might have dropped off at Goodwill while her hair shifts from shock-pink curls to electric blue spikes. Her overall appearance is equally off-putting and adorable, her expressions ranging from weird and creepy to pitiable and heart-breaking. Colorist Matt Wilson complements Dabbs work with his trademark brilliance. Visually the book looks more like an old-school Vertigo title than the splashy books Image is mostly known for and thats not a bad thing. Read Full Review

Slogging through packed work weeks while reading comics can be exhausting, even though it's the only escape into another world that panels can offer. That's why I'm early in recognizing Doug Wagner's Klik Klik Boom as this year's breakout hit. Read Full Review

Between the Polaroids and gritty-yet-refined line art of Doug Dabbs, Sprout's not only able to communicate effectively with other characters in this story, but with those reading the comic. Read Full Review

The creative team behind Klik Klik Boom have the difficult task of dropping readers into the middle of a mystery surrounding an enigmatic character who can offer no exposition. To balance this, they wisely pair her with another character whose job it is to investigate and provide verbal context, allowing for unobtrusive explanations to be seamlessly woven in. Doug Wagners writing feels natural and compelling with dialogue that you can hear as you read. Doug Dabbs lays out panels that are a steady accompaniment to the sparse dialogue, showing everything that the silent character cannot tell, while Matt Wilsons coloring creates subtly effective transitions between the various settings, giving each location a grounded feel of space and time. The overall effect draws the reader along and begs the questions, how did we get here and what will happen next? This intrigue is furthered by the great looking cover art teased for issue two.
