"VS marches to the beat of its own drum...both rare and invigorating to find a book that's able to cultivate and repurpose it's influences while still making a case for its own existence." -Newsarama
"A comic that cranks its core conceits, violence and black humor, right up to eleven and ensures no reader will be able to ignore its twisted beginning." -ComicBook.com
"A Robocop-esque satire where actual warfare becomes a game." -The Oregonian
"A smart mix of Ribic's gorgeous art and outright pulp that's a lot of fun." -Uproxx
"Each page of this comic looks like the cover of a classic science fiction pulp, grabbing you outright by way of its bold artwork." -Nerdist
