The international comics community has come together for this heartbreaking and inspirational series of stories and artwork to benefit those children. It’s an investment that’s worth making. Overall: 10/10” * Comicon.com *“As an anthology collection, Lower Your Sights is meant to lift your spirits, open your mind, & show you things that will anger you, break your heart, and let you hope that someday we can watch a news report that doesn’t include bombed out homes and displaced families. […] With all of the insane talent involved, this book from Mad Cave Studios is bound to have at least one thing in it that you love. Given the purpose behind it, that one thing has to be worth the time you took to find it. Final Score: 13/13” * The Pullbox *“Lower Your Sights has some of the most emotionally resonant material to tug at people’s heartstrings. Every writer and artist has something to share about how war affects people. It’s a long and complicated process that might grant a better perspective.
