Revue de presse

"Whilst Nineteen Eighty-Four might focus on the logical conclusion of authoritarianism, Blackbird examines its beginnings, focusing on the absurdity of this political perspective and the attrition of liberty it causes. It's rare that the term "underground comics" has any kind of literal value, but here it's spot on, following creators banding together to produce and distribute their work by any means necessary." --Avoid the Future

"Another welcome taste of Euro alt-comics." --Broken Frontier

"Very salient piece of social commentary wrapped in an incredibly engaging and believable story, much like Ant Sang's THE DHARMA PUNKS. Just as Ant did, Maurel has also captured the essence of his characters perfectly... This will appeal to anyone who appreciates the power of protest and absolutely loves the idea of someone sticking it to the man. So me at least, then!" --Page 45
