FROM REVIEWS:
"Tobin’s style is beautiful in an oozing, unsettled kind of way. Vivid, unpredictable watercolors make the images from Frontier #9 jump off the page. Tobin’s organic wobbly line, lumpy characters, and bright colors make the whole reading experience feel a little psychedelic and disconcerting."
- Alex Hoffman, Sequential State
"The pages seem to pulse with the energy of her lines. The details, like the cat shirt Butter wakes up in the morning after the creation of her synth, make re-reading rewarding--a rare treat. Simply, I can't wait to read more by Becca Tobin"
- Carrie, Try Harder
