Reviews
"In this bland word we live in, where stories are ‘product’ your story takes you by the hand and starts to lead you into a maze. I have no idea where that maze is going to take me, Christ I have no idea that it is a maze but man is it exciting. The person behind your story has a point of view. A voice and a swagger.
Our grandfathers were exposed to only 2500 hours of fiction by the time they hit 25. An average 25 year old is now exposed to over million hours of it. It’s so hard to get ahead of audience story expectation. Serial killer with a heart of gold? Seen it. Serial killer as superhero? Seen it. But your story obliterates that. Obliterates story expectation. I truly had no idea where we were going but I didn’t care. It’ is...and I use this word very, very… carefully - operatic genius. I genuinely mean it.
For me a great story does one thing simply. Makes me want to know what happens next. I have read it twice and the 2nd read is better than the first because you see more. The story reminds me of early Morrison. But better. The artwork feels like it’s been scratched with a fountain pen from your heart. Such expressive lines… This is excellent.
Okay that first page. The man sitting in the chair. What an opening. You think hold on. Is he in the desert with a beer? But it's the captions… some of those lines, 'The age of Horus has settled in and put its feet up.' This is the beauty of your work. Every page if you read it properly has layers and truth… It's great writing, just great. I also think the artwork is so unique, so interesting. Again, like your story it can not be put in a box. For example: The patterns behind the cowboy hat man. I don't know what they are but they give the panels an organic quality and they make it so interesting. You don't follow the rules and make your own up and it's magic!"

What readers are saying:
Love it! Great dialogue, art work is perfect for the story. Line work is nice & loose and the colours are just right. Finding the lists/recommendations intersect with mine in places but discovering new ‘stuff’.

Strange, deep, paranoid and bizarrely funny.
