    Comic Bastards - Oliver Gerlach Oct 11, 2017

    It's entirely worth reading for Rodenbeck and Belmont's art, despite the frustrating wordiness of the captions, and I have very high hopes for this series continuing and improving as Stark and Garrett learn and develop. Judging by the notes at the back, neither of them have much experience in comics, and this is a very solid start for them. If, in future, they can learn to relax a little and let the art bear the majority of the storytelling, this series could turn into something excellent. Read Full Review

    I'm a sucker for a good heist story so I was predisposed to like Wolverton: Thief of Impossible Objects. Fortunately, it delivers on that front. It just fell short once it shifted focus. Read Full Review

    Bleeding Cool - Joshua Davison Nov 4, 2017

    Wolverton: Thief of Impossible Objects #1 is a fun and energetic read. Jack Wolverton is a charming protagonist, the premise is entertaining, and the art is fantastic. Im not sure how widely available the comic currently is, but, if you can find it, you should definitely support it. Ill include a link to the website here. Read Full Review

    Derek Rodenbeck provides the interior art with colors by Ellen Belmont. For the most part, I don't have much of a problem with the art; it fits the era that all involved are aiming for, though what starts out as strong facial elements slips later in the book. It as if Rodenbeck is not sure of his influences or maybe his own style is breaking out. Either way, the differences aren't too drastic and still manage to convey the message. Camera angles could be improved on, which in turn may reduce the need of all the boxes, which would give Rodenbeck more room to play with. The pace of the art is ok, nothing is really out of place. Belmont's colors show some style as she deals with the belly of a whale and the city streets of London well. The pair may have taken a look at the Mignola-verse books which are always coloured to a high quality and meet the needs of the respective time periods. If they have, then it's too their credit as the art, as whimsy as it can be in places, is the best thing Read Full Review
