Reviews
"An impressive debut packed with startlingly fresh details and buzzy atmosphere. This expansive story of an artist's journey embraces both the power of art and human connection and showcases a new comics talent." - Publishers Weekly; "The Impending Blindness of Billie Scott is a coronation for writer/artist Zoe Thorogood as one of the great cartoonists of this decade. A glorious and heart-rending look at creativity and relationships." - Graphic Policy; "I've been involved in comics commentary for nearly 14 years at Broken Frontier and trust me when I say that I have rarely seen a first graphic novel as accomplished as this one. A fascinating, philosophical piece... equal parts heartbreaking and inspirational." - Broken Frontier
