The Dial and Other Stories
Comic
Book Reviews
"I find Chris Reynolds'
comics very strange, haunting and eccentric, awakening my curiosity
about the world he presents to me. What is this feeling I get
from his
stories... ...Reynolds' comics are truly original and
great."

Oscar Zarate reviews the original edition of The Dial in Escape
"...evocative,
atmospheric, beautiful..."
Shelfari.com
The sparse writing style, unique drawings and touch of the absurd which
make up the work of Chris Reynolds have led to his being heralded as
perhaps the most exciting British talent in comics."

Northern Events
"In Mauretania
there is a partial suspension in time, a curious internal logic and a
feeling of distant menace."
-
Glasgow Herald
Chris
Reynolds is preoccupied
with notions of time and space, and in
his unique vision atmosphere is as important as plot progression, time
can distort and fuse."

Human Reward,

mysterious hills and arches of
his strips, there are spaces that the reader’s imaginations
can’t help but want to explore."

the art and the dreamlike story invest Mauretania with an
insidious power."

Time Out
"...a fascination
with the sense of place; the persistence and mystery of memory; a
concern with the effects of design; the potency of transformation,
(usually spritual)."

“I cannot
sentimentalize what has gone, and perhaps that is a good thing, for
hankering after the past often denotes a disappointing present. If we
go backward to find our emotions, something is far wrong; equally wrong
is the forward look, toward bliss in the next world.”
- A.S. Neill
