Raves and Reviews
"Godzilla doing time in HBO’s “Oz” is catchy shorthand, but it does not fully capture this comic."
– The New York Times
"Kaijumax is a heart-wrenching, socially conscious comic about monsters in and out of prison."
– Paste
"The story is driven by sorrow, alienation, and rage against an oppressive system, and while there are plenty of moments of humor, Kaijumax goes to some very dark places."
– AV Club
"One of the best examinations of race in comics is a bonkers comic about a prison for giant monsters."
– Salon
"This is a poignant, modern critique of culture in an easily accessible and satirical package. Fans of brainy, incisive comics should look no further than Kaijumax."
– Booklist
