What people are saying about GUERILLAS:
“You don’t need the likes of me to tell you to buy a comic book about apes with machine guns. They’re APES, for God’s sake. With MACHINE GUNS.”
Jackson Publick, co-creator of Adult Swim’s THE VENTURE BROS.
“Revel’s story provides a mix of both action movie combat and meditations on the horrors of war and the unfairness of forcing individuals into a fight they don’t want to participate in to further someone else’s goals. The story succeeds because of the emotion he’s able to evoke from the chimpanzees through facial expressions, hand gestures, and grunts alone.” Publisher’s Weekly
“Brahm Revel’s work in Guerillas feels like the composition of an old pro. The author/artist takes full advantage of the medium’s unique storytelling opportunities, skillfully weaving pleasantly nostalgic narrations into scenes of debauched violence and complete moral ambivalence.” IGN
“It’s not very often that a book impresses me this much… but with Guerillas Brahm Revel has created a lasting title that deserves far more attention than it has yet received… I, at least, will be waiting with much anticipation for the next volume. I can’t recommend this book enough.” Newsarama
