Reviews
Smart writing and distinct art play off each other perfectly in this story that transcends the gore-fest comedy genre. What's unexpected: this story has a lot of heart; it also has a lot of severed limbs, eyeballs and other internal organs. --Sean Chen, artist of Iron Man , Wolverine , X-Men , and The Avengers
Being replete with disfigured students, terrifying monsters and scenes of gruesomely explicit torture, the art is as much fun as the broadly tweaked school-story tropes... Hellishly hilarious. -Kirkus Reviews Smart writing and distinct art play off each other perfectly in this story that transcends the gore-fest comedy genre. What's unexpected: this story has a lot of heart; it also has a lot of severed limbs, eyeballs and other internal organs. --Sean Chen, artist of Iron Man, Wolverine, X-Men, and The Avengers Satan's Prep is a twisted love story that rocks like hell. --Michael Northrop, author of Trapped and Surrounded By Sharks Brimming with dark whimsy and razor-sharp humor, Satan's Prep is a laugh-out-loud (and then weep for the horror of your teenaged years) entry into the canon of 'high school is hell' lit. Creative, contemporary, and fresh--and so much fun it's scary! Hashtag nailed it. --Micol Ostow, author of Amity
