Critics Review
Mugshots is stylish, charismatic and tense. With absolutely striking art. – Tom Taylor (Nightwing, Injustice)
Bad people doing bad things to get out of a bad situation. Mugshots is the best new crime comic in a long damn time.
– Matthew Rosenberg (What’s The Furthest Place From Here, 4 Kids Walk Into A Bank)
Mugshots is one of those rare comics that gets better and better with every page. Intelligent storytelling on every level! – Dan Panosian (Canary, Slots)
Mugshots is clean and crisp, and gorgeously crafted. It’s cool crime drama of the highest caliber. – Jill Thompson (The Sandman, Wonder Woman)
Thomas and Matthews deliver the best crime comic since 100 Bullets. A stylish gut-punch of a debut.
– Karl Kerschl (Gotham Academy, Brave & The Bold)
A beautifully-designed Parker-esque crime comic – Rob Williams (Judge Dredd, Petrol Head)
This gorgeously rendered book is a seedy deep-dive into the UK criminal underworld filled with wisecracking felons and terrifying gangsters. A potent mixture of murder, mayhem, and heart ensure that Thomas and Matthews have hit the jackpot with this one. – Chris Condon (That Texas Blood, The Enfield Gang Massacre)
Mugshots is an edgy crime drama which, like most great crime stories, is ultimately about where family meets power.
– Mark Russell (Not all Robots, Fantastic Four: Life Story)
A rich story wrapped in bold visuals that creates a superb visual experience. Highly stylistic and original, Mugshots confirms Thomas and Matthews as unique talents. – André Lima Araújo (A Righteous Thirst For Vengeance, Phenomena)
A classic crime story with lively twists and engaging illustrations. * Kirkus Reviews *
