Media Reviews
[If] there's a single strong underlying message running throughout Portraits of Violence, it's one of pedagogical change; of the need to educate future generations to view the world through a critical lens, and to forever question the narrative woven by the media. Portraits of Violence is an extremely timely book, then, and one adapted with both reverence and soul -Carl Doherty, Shelf Abuse; I strongly urge you to read this... a compelling and challenging collection that needs to seen by everybody in power or comfortably submitting to it -Comics Review.
