“Twig may rank up among Image Comics' best series of all time.” * ScreenRant *
“A richly detailed fantasy land in the vein of The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, or Jeff Smith's beloved Bone comics.” * i09 *
"Twig’s journey provides plenty of daring escapades to please the adventurer at heart." * Kirkus Reviews *
"Concocts a beautiful assembly of colors, ranging from calming magenta to creepy absinthe, to depict the ever-changing topography...ends on a wild note, taking a simple journey to cosmic heights." * Comic Book Resources *
"The narrative’s gentle tone smartly contrasts the art’s occasionally grotesque visuals; in brilliantly hued palettes, Strahm renders distorted landscapes populated by innovative technologies, anthropomorphic ruins, and softly rounded critters sporting an astounding array of teeth. While Young’s plot follows a well-trod quest trajectory, clever tweaks and subversions keep it feeling fresh." * Publishers Weekly *
