Aya of Yop City
Drawn & Quarterly
“…a multifaceted romantic comedy that would satisfy even without any political agenda behind it… memorable in mood, capturing [Ivory Coast]’s brief flicker of post-colonial peaceful prosperity before descending into the modern maelstrom of corruption and violence we know only too well.” – Publishers Weekly

Me and the Devil Blues V1
Del Rey

“…Me and the Devil Blues not only thoughtfully details the historical underpinnings of its subject matter, but it also evokes the blues itself so effectively that you can practically hear the music reverberating off the plank boards of the 1930s juke joints… exciting, often thought-provoking, and full of surprising and sometimes innovative visuals.” – Graphic Novel Reporter

Nat Turner HC
Abrams

“[Kyle] Baker’s intricately expressive faces and trenchant dramatic pacing evoke the diabolic slave trade’s real horrors.” – Washington Post
