Zub Tales

The Fame Game arrived in stores this week and reviewers are liking where we’ve taken Glitterbomb.
Check it out:

• Adventures In Poor Taste: “Morissette-Phan does a great job capturing the characters’ emotions in the moment, and Zub’s dialogue cuts right to the heart of Kaydon’s emotional struggle: she wants to feel like she matters.”

• Comic Buzz: 10/10 “I simply cannot praise this book enough. Zub, Morissette-Phan and Russel continue right where they left off to create a tense character driven story with a deep sense of foreboding horror underlying everything.”

• Comics Blog (French): 8/10 “The Fame Game has just started targeting its victims, and we recommend you be there to watch the bodies stack up.”

• Doomrocket: “[Djibril Morissette-Phan is] no longer a newcomer, but his etchings still impress.”

• G4ME (Dutch): “Kaydon’s story is evolving and, with the unrestrained brutally of the last page, this is looking to be a promising sequel.”

• Geek Out Book Club: “Definitely check it out. It gets our seal of approval.”

• Horror Talk: 8/10 “Artist Djibril Morissette-Phan shows some brilliant art direction throughout the issue.”

• Living Myth: “Some of us are fighting to tell stories outside the horror the Industry has become. Some of us even manage that within it. It’s a fight, though, and if you’re looking to see what that fight is all about this is the comic you should be reading.”

• Multiversity: 7.7/10 “A great debut for an existing franchise that keeps both new and existing readers intrigued, with strong art and letters to drive home deeper philosophical questions of the cost of fame.”

• Newsarama: 9/10 “there’s a transgressive slant to the narrative that’ll likely have you hoping the supernatural horror wins out over the real-world horror.”

• Oregon Live: “by subtly changing the dynamics of the series while remaining true to its essence, Zub and Morissette-Phan may be creating their best work yet.”

• Outright Geekery: 10/10 “This is a very interesting first issue of a new series. One that explores the current hype of the ever-present desire to be famous.”

• The Pullbox: “It’s subtle, like a warm damp hand brushing the back of your neck, with sudden eruptions of vicious savagery that had me do a double take.”

• Reading With a Flight Ring: “a great reminder of what happened and a good introduction for a new reader.”

• Rogues Portal: “a compelling, unexpected blend of horror, coming-of-age, and Hollywood drama. With relatable characters and philosophical depth, this comic will appeal to a wide variety of readers. “

• We The Nerdy: 9/10 “off to a great start, ready to tackle similar themes but from a completely new angle. I am so, so happy this book is back.”
