Reviews / Votes
"Everything my Mononoke-loving heart could want. April can'tcome soon enough." -Jen Bartel "ISOLA's thematic and aesthetic homages to films like Princess
Mononoke, full of fantastical creatures and a foreboding sense of danger, are
thoughtfully crafted aspects of its world-building and storytelling."
-The Mary Sue "High fantasy with a colorful twist, imaginative and fresh."
-Paste Magazine "Simultaneously homages its sources of inspiration while quietly
paving its own ground." -ComicBook.com "Read it."
-Comicosity "Brenden Fletcher, Karl Kerschl, and MSASSYK have
crafted something wondrous here, and I highly recommend it. Give it a
read." -Bleeding Cool
