Reviews

"...an alternately moving and humorous story of an attempt by activists to save a housing block from demolition and gentrification. The confluence of genres in Welcome Home—drama, comedy, romance—do an excellent job of capturing the experiences of day to day life," The Comics Journal, Hank Williams

"Welcome Home is an enticingly introspective and painfully universal saga that should appeal to anyone who ever had a moment of monetary despair and emotional outrage at what we’ve allowed ourselves to become", Now Read This!, comicsreview, Win Wiacek

"It isn’t just its art, the way it plays with its form... and it’s not even the wonderfully rendered story which layers activism, memory, history, and love, but instead, why you should find this book and read it is because it does all this with humor, wit, and a good dose of hope," Fifth Estate, Sean Alan Cleary

"An excellent debut book full of heart and humour. If you enjoy a good story, you’ll enjoy this," Simon Chadwick, The Cartoonists' Club of Great Britain

"Visually Welcome Home employs a very loose realism with frequent sidesteps into more flowing, dream-like sequences ... Pages and panel structures are often designed to match the architectural ethos of the tower block which grounds environment in formal structure to great effect," Andy Oliver, Broken Frontier
