Praise and Reviews

Shamelessly fun…this beautiful graphic novel seeks to be something different. – Kirkus Reviews
From the musings on historical events/people to the revisionist narrative and ideology, World War Kaiju feels dizzying in its aspiration and spirit…you are unlikely to see a more ideologically stuffed and yet adoringly created book released this year… – STARBURST Magazine

…the overall presentation and artwork is first rate. – SF Crowsnest

The book is cool! A mix of sequential art in a painterly style… I enjoyed this quite a bit. – Indie Comic Book Noise

Tense interrogations, twists, turns, and conspiracies. Great art, great story. To say anymore would spoil a wonderful read. Looking forward to Book two. – Optic House

World War Kaiju looks flat-out gorgeous…the team’s fondness for the source material makes itself felt through the attention to detail evident in the book’s pastiches and the sense of glee that emanates from the volume’s multiple action set pieces. – The Geekverse

My favorite part is the bonus bits after the story… Then they go deep, deep into the sci-fi science of the kaiju, and the diagrams and the big words are worth the price of admission. – Revolution SF

World War Kaiju is not just about monsters with fistifuffs… like the original Gojira, these monsters are metaphors, there's deeper meaning to them." – Planet X Control Room

Cleverly written and beautifully illustrated – Monster Attack Team

World War Kaiju is a reference-filled, often humorous Cold War tale that is sure to please kaiju fanatics. – Nerds on the Rocks

We see huckster Martians and hero scientists, along with tons of monsters no doubt inspired from films on both sides of the Pacific. The appendixes in the back are chock full of information and their earnestness makes for some real good humor… This parody of 1950s sci-fi was an entertaining read and I look forward to seeing book 2 – Alternate History Week

Half of the fun of World War Kaiju is slowly peeling away the layers of the story with Keegan and Hampton….Once you get into World War Kaiju, you realize that while it is a tribute, it’s also an immense project rooted in world building, character study, and some funny, and oft-times rather poignant, political satire that all don’t necessarily have anything to do with kaiju… – Nerd Binge
