Urscape #1 Reviews

Filed under: Press — Tags: — William Cardini @ 7:39 am

Urscape #1, which I self-published in the spring, has accumulated a couple of reviews!

The first review is on the blog Ryan C’s Four Color Apocalypse. Here’s an excerpt:

A phantasmagoric whirlwind of impossible nightmare geometries, ever-transitory physical formations and states of being, and impenetrable pseudo-realities greets our boy Miizzz as he enters the titular Urscape, a ferociously post-giving-a-fuck updating of The King’s “Negative Zone” or “Quadrant X” with all the stops pulled out, the foot off the brake, and the accelerator weighed down with a brick.

The second review is on the site Optical Sloth. Here’s an excerpt:

Sometimes I wonder what would happen to me if I gathered all the William Cardini comics I’ve picked up over the years, took an afternoon and read them all in a row. I’m honestly not sure what that would do to a person. I mean that in the best possible way, of course; comic-induced madness always seemed like a likely fate for me.

Maybe I should include a warning, “May cause comics-induced madness!” on the cover of Urscape #2? Read the whole review here.
