Reviews

“The story is dark but spellbinding, and the art’s gorgeous realism makes the tale compelling and take on a life of its own.”

– John Kirk, Pop Mythology

“I’m 100% engrossed in this strange adult fairy tale, which is loaded with some of the most captivating and wonderfully macabre imagery that one is likely to ever see in a comic book. Spells, demonic forces and a mother/daughter rivalry for the ages all make Shame a must-own for lovers of dark fantasy.”

– Keven Skinner, Fox Force Five

“Shame is a great fantasy story and also features some of the best art you’ll ever see in comics.”
