Reviews
“Reading through this book it becomes very clear that what writer, Gordon Rennie wants to do is give his readers one heck of a good time – and he does exactly that. Department of Monsterology is brilliant.”
– Erik McAlister, Comic Bastards
“Horror, urban fantasy and occult fans, take note: there’s a new player in town and it kicks arse! One of the best debut trades I’ve read in a long time. …an exceptional book.”
– Zoe Kirk-Robinson, Web Comics
“The scope and scale of this comic, in both the art and the story, is one of a kind […] This is creative, imaginative and well-researched stuff.”
– Rob Alexander, Rocky Mountain Outlook
“Irish artist P.J. Holden draws up a host of beasts in this four-part feature revolving around the global investigations of weirdness by Dunsany College’s Department of Cryptozoology, Mythological Studies, Parapsychology and Fortean Phenomena. Higher education has never been so hair-raising.”
– Brian Truitt, USA Today
“I’m sorry, Renegade Arts Entertainment, you can’t stop now. This series must continue and must become monthly. Name your price and I’ll be there. Monsters, mystery, and mayhem. What more could you want in a comic?”
– Patrick McAleer, We The Nerdy

– Wayne Hall, Major Spoilers
