2004 FINALIST FOR FOREWORD MAGAZINE'S BOOK OF THE YEAR
"It recalls nothing more than the early surrealist film masterpieces Dalí and Buñuel’s Un chien Andalou and Cocteau’s Le Sang d'un poete, and like them its fascination is as repulsive as it is attractive, its logic that of dreams, not storytelling."--BOOKLIST
"Writer John Ira Thomas has taken comics narratives where David Cronenberg has taken film and where Philip K. Dick took prose fiction. His illustrative collaborator Carter Allen deserves much praise for his ability to match the diversity of Thomas’ narrative with a library of artistic style shifts that would even impress pop culture chameleons David Bowie and Madonna."--Leroy Douresseaux, THE COMIC BOOK BIN
"MAN IS VOX: Paingels is different, thought-provoking and disturbing all at the same time."--Tony Doug Wright, ERASING CLOUDS
