A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

"Even in a time when the company’s most critically successful book is a moody supernatural horror story where the entire cast is about two seconds away from being murdered by zombies, Archie Vs Predator still seems like a beautiful, beautiful dream." -Comics Alliance

"Archie Vs. Predator" #1 is a gift from God himself." -Comic Book Resources

"‘Archie Vs. Predator’ Is the Most Messed Up Comic You’ll Ever Read" -MTV

“It'll be interesting to see just how far de Campi's script dials up the violence, how long the characters remain ignorant to the fact that the Predator is among them and how well these elements continue to be integrated in "Archie-style" by Ruiz but so far, so good.” -Adventures In Poor Taste

"So whether Archie and Jughead end up smeared in mud battling their alien assailant to the death, or with their skulls and spinal columns hanging on a trophy room wall somewhere, you can most definitely count me in for the rest of this story which is a sentence I honestly never thought Id write in a comic review.” -Big Comic Page

"Should you buy this issue and series? Absolutely. Tell your friends, buy one for a random stranger. Give a copy to your kids and prepare for the questions. This issue was everything it should have been and everything I wanted.” -Comic Bastards

"Archie Vs. Predator #1 takes a huge risk and it pays off incredibly well, resulting in a satisfying teen comedy horror story. Fans and rubberneckers alike will find something to enjoy in these pages. Here's hoping that this only leads to more weird collaborations between these two publishers.” -Comic Book Resources

"The end result is going to be something unsettling, and unlike anything currently being published, but we only get a glimpse at what that will be here. Now that the pieces are in place, there's no reason to think that the rest of the series isn't going to be absolutely insane, and that's a good thing.” -Comicosity
 
"In an ARCHIE comic, this could easily have been tacky; instead, it's pretty awesome.” -ComicWow!

"This one could be a classic.” -Den of Geek

Her other work includes the Valentine mobile comic, which is the main focus of her column Uncanny Valleygirl at the comics industry website Bleeding Cool. The author lives in London, England U.K..
