“Most of these stories end in apocalyptic destruction―and in most of those that don’t, some hapless person is torn to shreds. Despite this havoc, the tone is lighthearted, thanks to a deliberately stiff, mannered style reminiscent of both Michael Kupperman and outsider cartoonist Fletcher Hanks. Though brief, the stories here make an unforgettable impact thanks to Haven’s strong, inky visuals―as with the death rider in a polo outfit, Equestria―and unrelenting fascinating with death and doom. It’s a haunting combo.” ―Publishers Weekly review of Haven’s book UR.
