Critics Review
“A stark, arresting graphic novel that weds Simon’s account of facts and police personalities (alongside ample use of the quoted dialogue he preserved as well as his own descriptive prose) to visual and storytelling techniques somewhat reminiscent of Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Andreyko’s Torso: an unflinching depiction of a city at its darkest, conveyed in deep shadows and shades of gray.” –Popverse
“The panels are of particular interest, with a single perspective often being broken across multiple panels; while in some graphic novels this can make it hard to follow the narrative, Squarzoni succeeds in keeping it easy to decipher.” –Booklist
