Reviews

“A brilliantly drawn, heart-rending drama of modern life in troubled times, so contemporary that it could be off the streets of any city today.” — Paul Buhle, author of Marxism in the United States

“Channeling Marc Chagall, James Albon has created one of this year’s most insightful political satires... A Shining Beacon offers insightful political clarity wrapped in the warmth of humanity.” — Comics Beat

"A fantastic book, extrapolating British current affairs into a dystopian nightmare. It’s on point, superbly written, joyously illustrated and a pleasure to read." — Grovel
