Media Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle, January 18th 2004: Moore's script always works on multiple levels...O'Neill's art captures the humour, horror and spectacle of one of the best-known extraterrestrial invasions. - Michael Berry. Essex Chronicle, Thursday October 4th 2004, review by Matt Adams: This is the War of the Worlds as you've never seen it before! A phenomenal fusion of literary giants, mixing legend, myth and pulp fantasy into a triumphant cocktail illustrated with style and aplomb by the great Kevin O'Neill. The Times Supplement December 2004: Even more decadently filthy, gothic and thrilling than its predecessor...a ripping yarn ; Sunday Mercury (Birmingham) 6 February 2005: ...even if you've never read H.G Wells, Robert Louis Stevenson or Jules Verne, theres much to be enjoyed.
