Footprints #1 Featured on The Weekly Pull

The very kind gentlemen over at The Weekly Pull podcast had some very nice things to say about Footprints #1 and our Kickstarter campaign!

One particular quote I’m fond of is, when speaking of Bigfoot and the gang, “It’s almost like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen… the fact that they’re abnormals takes a back seat to the characterization.” You can listen to the full episode here, and make sure to check back with the show next week as I’ll be making an appearance!

If you’ve got any questions about Footprints that you’d like me to answer, you can e-mail the show with your questions!

Footprints #1 Review @ WeirdReview

The kindly gentleman at WeirdReview.com posted a nice writeup about Footprints #1 (along w/ a smokin’ hot photo of Jonathan and I). Here’s an excerpt:

The cover artwork is in cooler tones with black, shades of browns, and blues and the internal work is all black and white which works well for me as the story is dark and the places and characters are cold in nature (the Artic, Don and Nessie are sea creatures, etc.)  In the midst of the darkness the story flashes to a humorous scene from before the old gang broke up where Foot was shooting a pic of the rest of the gang and it included his brother Yeti with an afro and a leisure suit.

Footprints #1 Review @ Comic Attack

After a lovely C2E2 experience, I was elated to find yet another great review of Footprints #1, this time courtesy of Comic Attack! Here’s an excerpt:

If you took out the creatures and put in normal people, you’d still get a classic detective story. And that’s not a bad thing, either. This is a comic that doesn’t need cheap gimmicks or reliance on high concept ideas; the story is strong and can stand on its own. Still, I’m curious as to how the story will develop and if they’ll start taking advantage of the creatures’ mythologies. Either way, whether they stick with the classic noir or push the high concept of Big Foot as a detective, they can’t really lose as long as they keep going strong.

Coming from a site that I love, that’s awesome! Be sure to read the full review of Footprints #1 at Comic Attack.

Footprints #1 Review @ GeekNative

Andrew at the site GeekNative got his hands on a copy of Footprints #1 and wrote up a very nice review, saying:

Indeed the cast and crew are cryptozoological creatures; we’re introduced to Mr Devil early on, there’s also Nessie, Megalodon (aka Don) and a Chupacabra (aka Choop). What works very early on is Bigfoot as a noir private eye. Visually it works – shambling around in a large coat, that brooding sense of the unexpected and you’re entirely uncertain of what levels of violence Foot is capable of. The league of cryptids gather later on in issue and have enough time and page space to show similar promise.
