Praise for Black River “Black River, unlike the many other post-apocalyptic stories, doesn’t give its reader the satisfaction of a glimmer of hope. Nothing is going to get better. No one is going to survive.” Sequential Slate

“It’s this molasses drip of eventuality that Simmons hooks us on, demonstrating that humanity may morph into its simplest and truest form when the darkest of hours is upon us.” Cleaver Magazine

Praise for Ofelia: A Love and Rockets Book “Engrossing, sexually explicit, violent, and satirical.” Booklist June 17, 2015

Praise for Wandering Son Vol. 8 “Wandering Son won critical acclaim for its sensitive portrayal of two fifth-graders experimenting with cross-dressing and changing gender roles…The series gets deeper and more complex as it goes along.” Barnes and Noble Manga Roundup

Foolbert Funnies: Histories and Other Fictions by Frank Stack 

"Foolbert Funnies is a definitive collection of comic art by one of the quirkiest and most intriguing artists to emerge from undergrounds. As a former college art professor, Frank Stack brought a unique approach to his art, blazing his own trail. And what could be more appropriate for an underground comics cartoonist than that?" –Jason Sacks, Comics Bulletin

Spawn of Mars by Wallace Wood and Al Feldstein

  "…the reason I'm almost guaranteed to eventually pick this up: shelf porn. I'd probably buy 'Wally Wood sci-fi reprints' as a digest, but this is going to eventually look so damn good on the oversized shelf. It's the smuggest reason to buy anything ever, but I don't care." –Jim Dandendeau, Topless Robot 

A Valentine for Charlie Brown by Charles M. Schulz 

"Schulz was truly one of the game's great ambassadors." - Former National Baseball Hall of Fame President Dale Petroskey
