STEP BY BLOODY STEP may be my new favorite comic. SPURRIER, BERGARA, and LOPES have created something that celebrates everything comics can be: mysterious, inventive, bursting with imagination, and also incredibly heartfelt without ever saying a word. JEFF LEMIRE (Sweet Tooth, THE BONE ORCHARD MYTHOS) "This compelling epic fantasy features richly developed characters, breathless suspense, and a profoundly moving climax, all conveyed through illustrator Matķas Bergaras (Coda) brilliant visual storytelling alone, unaccompanied by text or dialogue... An emotionally nuanced, action-packed, absolutely astonishing feat of graphic narrative." Library Journal (starred review) Rewards rereads. The visual storytelling is intuitive, but still kind of unique, and EW can confirm that subsequent reads can shed light on key details or transitions that may have gone unnoticed the first time. Entertainment Weekly Full of grandiose environmental spectacle and giant-vs.-monster action, but theres just as much magic in the smaller moments, which show off a different side of BERGARAs ingenuity. Polygon A gorgeously drawn introduction to a bizarre, fascinating, and wordless world. Comic Book Resources
