Reviews

Praise for Mike Mignola:
"The series is such a rich, complex conglomeration of pulp, myth and humor, yet Mignola's vision so insanely precise, that each comic is able to effortlessly welcome and envelope you back into its strange world filled with odd characters and even odder ideas." -IGN
"Through out the years, Mignola has done exemplary work taking areas of interest and blending them into a big tapestry, filling out corners of a world along a visible timeline with methodical ease. Clearly, he is trying to make us all look bad and is succeeding at every turn." -Comics Beat

Praise for Patric Reynolds:
"The influence of H.R. Gigers artwork on Alien and subsequent films cannot be understated. His illustrations of the xenomorph, distant habitats, and obscene sculptures provided a presence to the films that would linger with audiences and haunt their dreams." --ComicBook.com
