The Reviews Are In!! Plus, Nomination News!
So THE BROADCAST has been out for nearly two months now and word is finally starting to spread. Here's a glimpse at what people are saying…
"An intriguing character study." — Publisher's Weekly
"Hobbs' brilliant, character-driven script weaves a tight psychological thriller that at once feels both intimate and epic. A deceptively simply, exquisitely crafted original graphic novel." — Broken Frontier
"It is a Halloween tradition to replay Orson Welles' WAR OF THE WORLDS broadcast. If a station near you doesn't play it, try picking up this comic. It's just as good." — Ain't It Cool News
"A powerful story." — The Onion's A.V. Club
"A mature, original, and deeply moving text, one that takes advantage of the unique affordances of the comics medium to tell a complex tale." – Gutter Geek
"It's great to see a comic that is not only well told and interestingly illustrated, but also embraces the mythos of the American experience." – The Outhousers
"Five stars!" — Las Vegas Weekly
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Reviews have been great across the board, and we just learned that THE BROADCAST is nominated to be on this years ALA/YALSA "Great Graphic Novels For Teens" list.
Noel and I are both extremely happy with the response to the book and hope you'll give it a look if you haven't already. Don't forget, you can read the first 21-pages right here before heading over to Amazon where you can pick up the rest.
In additional news, the colors on AWAKENINGS were finished last week so expect to hear about the huge collection we're putting together for that soon.
