REVIEW: Jedan od boljih evropskih komada devete umetnosti u poslednjih par godina. 
Moglo bi dosta reči hvale da se izreknu na njegov račun, zaista. O samoj priči ne bih mnogo, ona je uzbudljiva i misteriozna, dovoljno zanimljiva da vas vuče dalje. O vizuelnom momentu ne vredi ni pričati, jer će vas slike priložene uz tekst svakako oduševiti i ubediti bolje od bilo koje moje (nedestojne) reči. Ono o čemu se mroa pričati jeste atmosfera ovog stripa. Ono što ste osećali čitajući klarkovu "Odiseju" osetićete i ovde. Ta slamajuća veličina svemira, njegova za čovekov ograničen um istinski neshvatljiva priroda, taj


osećaj malenosti, nebitnosti i sveobuhvatnog strahopoštovanja prema nepoznatom stalno će biti prisutan. 
Blaga jeza odmah ispod kože, u korenu vaših dlačica.
