I like stories with strange but familiar environments. Well done.

You know that it's gone pretty far when it's the AUTHORITIES who demand that someone watch out for invaders from other dimensions. I guess it's the logical consequence when a world has suffered from enough Lovecraft-stories? Definitely my cup of tea!

True talent is always distinctive; I think HPL would have been surprised and fascinated - and delighted - with this work.

This is truly a gorgeous comic, and while reading, you can really see improvement with every single page, I think you can really tell that the artist is putting her all into it, can't wait to see what happens :D

Found you at Archon in St. Louis this weekend. Love your work and I can't wait to read more. Very intriguing! I just voted for you.

The artwork displays a very unique style that is best described as Coffeehouse Horror. The storyline plumbs the depths of existing social norms and their acceptance in a radically different world. Original, well drawn, highly recommended.
