Praise for a study in Emerald:
“The work of art is on the point, with lively period atmosphere and details shifting to creepy alien scenes … through which the reader enters the story again with a sense of horror that lingers long after the end.” – Publishers Weekly
“Gaiman has a well-considered storyteller’s voice, a measured and recognizable voice intention. Albuquerque and Scavone keep the choir intact and give a classic feel to a classic yarn in the inimitable Dark Horse style. A comic made then for now. – Doom Rocket
Praise for how to talk to girls at parties:
“There are few things that can be compared to the feeling of wonder that I get when I read and reread this comic.” – Geeks or Doom
“This is a creation of two artists who have a fundamental understanding of how and why a story works and can translate into a new medium, keeping the whole story intact and at the same time examining the corners and gaps of the story that may be lost its origin in the prose. “- Multiverse.
Praise for Murder Mysteries:
“… Russell conveys a clear, illuminated world of purity and divine experiments. His sharp and vivid drawings capture the spooky feeling of loss and isolation that Gaiman expresses in this mythical story of love and jealousy. – Publishers Weekly
Praise for forbidden brides from faceless slaves in the Secret House of the Night of Dread Desire
“A wonderful story that will leave you entertained and amused. The writing of Neil Gaiman is witty, capricious and clever and the art of Shane Oakley is a perfect addition to this satirical Gothic story. “- Impulse Gamer
“Forbidden brides of faceless slaves in the Secret House of the Night by Dread Desire is a beautiful graphic novel and a must-read for all lovers of gothic horror” – Rogues Portal
