Praise for this book

"Epic Dragon Ball Z-style action." --Entertainment Weekly"Epic Dragon Ball Z-style action." --Entertainment Weekly
"A unique, comedic art style that delivers laughs through both its dialogue and visual cues...readers will want to keep following to see what happens next." ï¿9;ComicBook.com
"An eye-popping pleasure to pore over Ba's funky artwork, a wide-ranging blend of influences from graffiti, pop art, animation, and cartoonists including Kyle Baker, Evan Dorkin, and Paul Pope. The panels burst with monsters, mutants, dark gods, and anti-corporate rage. With a psychedelic art style and anarchic vibe that would have fit right in with MTV's Liquid Television in the 1990s... Retro alt-comix fans and those who appreciate art for art's sake are likely to enjoy the trip." --Publishers Weekly
