Comments on Event Horizon Issue One:
SFX Magazine (4/5 stars) "There's a wonderful whiff of comic socialism in the air. A bunch of writers and artists have come together and decided not to wait for the big companies to invite them to play and instead they've published for themselves. Commendable? Definitely
Mam Tor: Event Horizon is a quality spot of pulp fiction in comic form."
MAXIM US "Fantasy tales and imagery too arresting to ignore
bizarre, funny, and visionary narratives in the horror, sci-fi, and zombie-Viking-Elvis genres. The art is every bit as left-field as the writing, with rich depictions of savage brutes
and hot goths in the spirit of Heavy Metal magazine."
EMERALD CITY "The future of British comics just sort of fell into my lap."
