Comic Buzz Praises Skullkickers #16

James Mason at Comic Buzz reviews Skullkickers #16, our latest release, and gives it high praise on all fronts.

\”Skullkickers is one of the most fun, irreverent and devil may care comics out there. The only thing the creators care about in Skullkickers is that it’s the best comic they can make. Something they succeed at in every issue. The maddening thing is they make it look all too easy.\”

The Onion\’s major media site The A.V. Club has a review of Skullkickers #14 and 15 by Oliver Salva that heaps a whole lot of praise on our series. It feels great to be piquing the interest of some big press outlets over the past few months as we continue to plug away on the comic.

\”Since its debut in 2010, Skullkickers has become one of Image’s most consistently entertaining titles.\”…\”This book has gathered a devoted fan base in a short time, thanks to its mix of silliness and ultra violence, but the developments in these past two issues show that the creative team is ready to make a good series even better.\”
