Review Quotes

"The Loose End is a delightful throwback to the crime dramadies of the 1990s. If you had told me this was a lost Quentin Tarantino script adapted for comics, I'd be inclined to believe it. Dave Dwonch's script shows true wit and the artwork by Travis Hymel captures the mood of the setting well. This is a must-read for all true-crime fans." - Kabooooom.com

"The Loose End #1 delivers an entertaining, well-crafted introduction to a classic crime premise. It blends a zippy narrative, logical character motivations, and dynamic visuals." - AIPT
