"a work of art in it's own right and a place comic artists can draw inspiration from." -- Digital Creative Arts Issue 16
..expertly paced...for anyone who saw, lived, even rented Quadrophenia, the story is steeped in all the right details." -- Guardian Review 9th April 2005
Looks like Gibbons hasn't finished making comic book history yet. -- The List, December 2-16, 2004
