Couple of nice reviews courtesy of Scaryminds:KAGEMOMO: TOOTH AND CLAW (this was the 2009 book) gets a nice 8 stars:http://www.scaryminds.com/reviews/2010/comic029.phpMy story ‘Singapore’ gets a special (if brief) mention in Scary’s review of Tom…
Scaryminds.com continues their Blackglass reviewfest with KAGEMONO #2, which they have given 9 stars:
"Kagemono #2 was just the right dose for an over wise rain drenched and miserable day; yes we do get them in Oz folks. I was once again highly impressed with Jason Franks writing, noted the deeper thoughts a number of the stories addressed, and grooved along to the artwork. There’s something subversive about Kagemono that kept me humming to Mr Franks’ beat."

A quite exhaustive review of KAGEMONO #1 just went up on scaryminds.com:
"Yes folks, in keeping with other Down Under comic Publishers Black Glass are hitting the newsstands with a comic that not only rivals the big publications coming out of the U.S but costs about as much as a schooner of beer at a decent hotel. The scripting is damned fine here, once again I’ll emphasis that there’s more going on under the hood than it first appears, with each story in the issue being well constructed. The artwork ranges from classic fantasy, through Japanese inspired anime, to pretty simple panels."
A really nice review; the author understands exactly what we’re going for and he says something about every story , mentions every writer and artist involved.
