"Danny Boyd's Carbon combines three distinct genres- Lovecraftian gorefest, religious picture book and political allegory- to tell the story or our slow and conscious self-poisoning" - Director John Sayles, from his introduction."Carbon is a great sci-fi adventure, with some serious political and economic themes running just below its surface. Boyd has crafted a story that manages to entertain and make you think without being too didactic or preachy and he still leaves you wanting more." - Popcult Bookshelf"Boyd marries sci-fi monster flick ideas with Appalachian tragedy, showing us imaginative allegory and authentic profundity do not have to be mutually exclusive." - Chris Oxley, Ain't it Cool News."This graphic novel's tale is a self contained piece of world building, loaded generously with imaginative flair and yet still grounded in reality like the wise Aesop born anew." - Richard Caldwell, Heavy Metal Magazine."...explores humanity's exploitative relationship with nature that is heartfelt, intimate, and totally outrageous!" - Scott Marcano, screenwriter of BioDome and Sanitarium.
