2023 Ignatz Award Nominee for Outstanding Online Comic.

"Subtle, haunting, and deft storytelling that has stuck with me for weeks after finishing the book. Blue is a master craftsman at comics and you don’t want to miss this one; read it twice." – Melanie Gillman, As the Crow Flies

"A swift poem of love and violence, a one-two punch – you won’t know what hit you. Adversary captures complex things about early transition, about coming out, about the isolation and paranoia of 2020, in a way that few creators have been willing to do. Delliquanti has been a cartoonist to watch for a long time, but they’ve become one you have to watch." – Isaac Fellman, Dead Collections

"Delliquanti shows a nuanced hand when it comes to character development, infusing Curtis’s and Anton’s role-playing scenes with sharp eroticism. This complex work rewards multiple readings." – Publishers Weekly

"A grounded erotica that also tells a painfully real story of loss, fear, and frustration in the face of a changing world and tragedy." –WWAC
