Critics Review
“[Gauld’s] economical art—think Edward Gorey drawing elegant stick figures—is married to dry, incisive humor, making each strip a carefully composed marvel.”” —Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
“That Gauld is able to get so much of that across with so little is like the most disarming, confounding magic trick.” —A.V. Club
“Terrifically funny.” —Paste Magazine
“[You’re All Just Jealous of My Jetpack] consists of single panel cartoon that explore the passage of time, absurdism, and most of the 7 Deadly Sins, all presented with a sense of graceful whimsy that makes his work such a delight to read.” —Boing Boing
