Review:
"A much-needed packaging of this decade's ascendant cartoonist generation."
"Where most anthologies have, at best, a 50/50 hit/miss ratio, Mome manages to be all-hit, don't miss."
"Mome has emerged as the best anthology in today's overstuffed comics shop. From cover to cover, Mome is the comics anthology at its most rewarding."
