Quoted on Cobbler's Monster

(I am also quoted on the BECKETT COMICS website for my review of THE COBBLER'S MONSTER. See the Independent Propaganda review below...)

THE COBBLER'S MONSTER


A tale of Gepetto's Frankenstein


THE COBBLER'S MONSTER
Grieving over the death of his only son, Gepetto mixes the new science of DNA
with the age-old magic of the golem to resurrect his son. But in truth, he was
never very close to Victor. And the anger that burns within the heart of the
monster he birthed and created, destroys everything and everyone around him.
Now, Gepetto must hunt his own son.

Featuring a stunning cover by the
author, Jeff Amano (Fade from Grace, The Ballad of Sleeping Beauty), beautiful
interior art by Craig Rousseau (RUULE Vol. 2: Kiss & Tell, Ronin Hood ofthe
47 Samurai) and colors by Giulia Brusco (RUULE Vol. 1: Ganglords of Chinatown,
Ronin Hood of the 47 Samurai), this acclaimed graphic novel tells the story of a
a man and a monster who, through unspeakable horror, find their way to becoming
father and son for the very first time.



"Writer Jeff Amano manages to perfectly recreate a Gothic
adventure with a new twist of adding some of the Pinocchio legend as well. The
interior art by Rousseau and Faucher is absolutely wonderful to gaze at, with
an awesome coloring job by Giulia Brusco."

Propaganda

"Craig Rousseau's inside pencils deftly capture every emotional
nuance... Amano's script is tight, moving from one scene of action to another
without losing the reader in the transition."
- The
Trades

"Craig Rousseau's art is simply fantastic. . . If you
like horror stories that actually make you think, give Cobbler's Monster a
try."
- The Comics Review
