“It’s lovely. It makes you feel better about comics.”—Frank Miller
 
“Beautiful, original, haunting.”—Ray Bradbury

“Call it a comic book. I’m not sure that’s what it is, but call it that and call it wonderful—full of greatness, wisdom, wit, adventure, awe of and reverence for life and the universe. I could make comparisons—to Vonnegut, Keillor, Bradbury and Cordwainer Smith, among others—but really Moonshadow is sui generis. I can’t recommend it highly enough.”—Dennis O’Neil
