RaveThe Seattle Review of Books...a sharp and canny graphic novel ... The real hero of this book is Singapore, and this is Sonny Liew’s love letter to his country ... Part of the cleverness of this book is that Liew is creating an underground history where one never existed, hacking together the seeds of the kind of counter-culture that critics like [William] Gibson fault Singapore for lacking ... Liew’s art is stellar throughout, a bold presentation that is graphically fearless. Echoing early masters is one thing, but building them inside of compelling stories that are part of a larger narrative 'presented by' the artist is a balancing act, and Liew delivers with aplomb.
