ADVANCE QUOTES -

"Kevin's artistic prowess is evident here as he flexes his penciling muscles for the first time in this full throttle comic. His storytelling is spot on, his visuals are eye-searing and characters are alive. One look and you'll want to keep looking for more of Carnival of Souls 
--Tony Daniel, (Teen Titans, The Tenth) 

"Kevin Conrad has long been one of the greatest inkers in the game, and I think we all knew he was really much more than that. He's got such a solid sense of storytelling structure, he's really one of the best pencilers in the game as well, and it's wonderful to see his full talents shine 
through." 
--Jim McLauchlin, editor-in-chief, Top Cow Productions.
