Raves and Reviews
"Fabulously enjoyable… what if MC-1 was more like James Elroy’s LA Confidential, just with more tech.” - Comicon
"A beautiful piece of comics work." - Downthetubes.net
'Writer Kenneth Niemand keeps the pace brisk, layering in enough recognisable characters for fans but making sure the story remains accessible on its own terms, while Dave Taylor does an incredible job with his textured, cinematic art, shifting this gloriously retro thriller from enjoyable to unmissable. 5 stars.' - SFX
"Dave Taylor's art can only be described as sumptuous... the lights and colours really pop.... the characters and cityscape designs are excellent." - Grovel
"Gorgeous art and clever storytelling." - Grovel
"Dave Taylor’s art is a wonder to behold, beautiful line work, sumptuously and atmospherically coloured, with a wonderful and believable design sense." - Comicscene
'This book is gorgeous. [...] I highly recommend Megatropolis to fans of Dredd, Noir, and Art Deco design; and if, like me, you're a fan of all three, then it's an absolute triple lock.' - Fortean Times
