"Simply essential...one of the most talented artists our polyglot culture has produced." - New York Times Book Review * "American fiction's best kept secret." - Rolling Stone * "Expressive and elegant cartooning....Magic, real, and literate - and fun to look at too. Grade: A." - Entertainment Weekly * "Quite simply, this is one of the twentieth century's most significant comic creators at the peak of his form." - Alan Moore, author of Watchmen * "A high point in the comics form, conventional in idiom, but not comparable to any strips before it." - The Washington Post"
