    Long Cold Winter stands out from the crowd with an entertaining tale that evokes thoughts of how we rely on technology and our treating of our home planet Earth. Francesca Perillo delivers yet another wonderful story with depth and brought to life by the unique art style of Stefano Cardoselli in this new series from Mad Cave Studios. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Theron Couch Dec 2, 2024

    This world and the story that takes place within it has potential. Peace Dog and The Kid make for an odd duo. And as the issue goes on, there is a blending of science fiction and western that hopefully plays out in greater depth over the course of the series. But its the art that sells this book. For now Long Cold Winter #1 is a detailed and colorful experience. Read Full Review

    Long Cold Winter is vibe. I love it, I really do. The story at the moment is very simple and predictable in nature, but I find that is the charm of it. It helps that the characters keep you invested and I know there will be some surprises along the way. This was great set up. The artwork alone makes this great pickup. You could honestly take the dialogue out completely and still follow along with what was happening! But it helps that Buddy Beaudoin's letter work compliments the artwork and character styles. I think this is one of those books to keep a look out for going forward! Read Full Review

    Lotusland Comics - Hank Rea Dec 4, 2024

    'Long Cold Winter' has a unique aesthetic that's irresistible and has a certain charm despite the inherent danger around every corner. The story is anchored by just the two protagonists and smartly written by Perillo. It's enough to keep readers glued in an otherwise familiar plot. Along with Cardoselli's stunning visuals, 'Long Cold Winter' seems poised to be one hell of a ride.  Read Full Review

    Graphic Policy - Brett Dec 4, 2024

    Long Cold Winter #1 isn't a bad start, it's just a very generic story. The characters don't have much personality and the plot isn't anything new. It doesn't stand out from what's come before and so many other choices out there. Read Full Review
