"Wonderfully bizarre... Deftly unorthodox and wickedly delectable." Best Indie Books Of The Year List -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Godkiller is that early display of genius. A nascent voice ready to make a lot of effing noise. It showed Pizzolo's skills, his tastes, his balls, and it set the stage for what would come from Black Mask and Pizzolo." -Tim Seeley (writer Nightwing, Hack/Slash)
"A singular vision full of fresh elegant brutality and dark humor, it's like some genius commissioned Chuck Palahniuk, Terry Gilliam and Aleister Crowley to reinvent dystopia fiction." -Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead (filmmakers The Endless, Spring, V/H/S Viral)
"Who knew we needed to kill comics in order to save them? Matt Pizzolo, that's who - the evil genius plotting to blow up the comics universe. His Godkiller is a horrific yarn of apocalypse, quantum physics, culture jamming, and conspiracy theory." -Wired
"I was truly moved. It's a dizzying read that will burrow into the core of your being. It pushed me further than I've ever been pushed and it establishes a new level of dialogue in the medium. In short, it's mandatory reading for anyone who loves comics. 5 out of 5 Skulls." -Bloody Disgusting
"This is the comic book equivalent of death metal, grunge and punk all wrapped up in a bow that says f you to the socially conditioned norm... Honestly, I loved it." -Multiversity Comics

Paperback. Condition: new. Muckcracker, Anna; Chang, Nen; Templesmith, Ben (illustrator). Paperback. The beloved, ultra not-for-kids, modern epic about teenage orphan Tommy and escaped slavegirl Halfpipe who travel through a post-nuke wasteland in search of a new heart for Tommy's dying sister. This omnibus edition collects volumes 1 & 2, the "Walk Among Us" saga. "GODKILLER is that early display of genius. A nascent voice ready to make a lot of fucking noise. It showed Pizzolo's skills, his tastes, his balls, and it set the stage for what would come from Black Mask and Pizzolo." -Tim Seeley (Batman Eternal, Hack/Slash) "A singular vision full of fresh elegant brutality and dark humor, it's like some genius commissioned Chuck Palahniuk, Terry Gilliam, and Aleister Crowley to reinvent dystopia fiction." -Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead (filmmakers Synchronic, The Endless, Moon Knight season 1, Loki season 2) (Starred Review) Best Books Of The Year List: "In Pizzolo's stellar graphic novel, an orphan boy braves a desolate, post-apocalyptic land in search of a heart for his sister. There's a lot going on in Pizzolo's wonderfully bizarre story, but its most distinctive feature is a barren, nearly dead world. The outside world is filled with decrepit, abandoned buildings, and even characters' bodies are in disrepair, adorned in lacerations and stitches. The people, too, are lost souls: Tommy defies the reputedly civilized Republic in Silver City and swears an oath to the Burnt, an order he's only read about in comic books (he took a hot iron to the face, the corresponding bandage serving as a constant reminder of his want for independence). The decidedly adult novel features a good amount of sex and violence, though never in a typical fashion. Muckcracker and Templesmith's artwork is enchanting and a true visual companion to Pizzolo's story. Characters are etched in chaotic scratches as if carved in stone, and pages are saturated in a rusty hue, like the soot and dirt corroding the atmosphere. Deftly unorthodox and wickedly delectable; not so much a story as an experience." -Kirkus Reviews The beloved, ultra not-for-kids, modern epic about teenage orphan Tommy and escaped slavegirl Halfpipe who travel through a post-nuke wasteland in search of a new heart for Tommy's dying sister.
