VARIETY.COM ON THE BAKERS: "Kyle Baker may be too good and too funny for the good of comics. [...] This book is full of short, mostly silent and very funny tales of Baker’s life as a father trying to get some rest, convince his kids there aren’t monsters under the bed, and most frightening of all, taking the brood to the mall to find a gift for his wife. Grade: A" Tom McLean, Variety.com |
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY LOVES NAT TURNER. "It's a hauntingly beautiful historical spotlight. Grade: A-" Abby West, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY |
AINTITCOOL.COM ON THE BAKERS: Now I’m not a family man, but man did I love this book. [...] With an animator’s sense of timing, Baker exposes the pains of fatherhood, from being booted off the couch to make room for the kids to trying to keep a leash on all his rugrats when he goes shopping. [...] I really enjoyed seeing something a little warmer and grounded in the familiar (but still packed with plenty of paternal suffering). Much goodness! - Dave Farabee, Aintitcool.com
