What People are Saying

The characters are getting more and more rounded, the storytelling more adventurous, and Howard Hardiman has proven that he has a strong grasp of what makes reading a comic exciting. — François Peneaud, Gay Comics List

Hardiman has taken this dark and potentially bleak backdrop and created a book that’s warm, sometimes funny and ultimately very engaging. — Kes Seymour, Spike Magazine, www.spikemagazine.com

Sexy and seedy dog tales. — Attitude, www.attitude.co.uk/

Beautiful and gritty. — Out There Magazine, www.outtheremagazine.com/

The availability of erotic comics and the presence of artists exploring sexual empowerment [...] is welcome and necessary, but investigating other aspects of contemporary gay culture such as here with “The Lengths” is equally vital and relevant. — Joe Palmer, Gay League, www.gayleague.com

What stays with you on completing the comic is a sense of having read something raw, powerful and very real. — Richard Bruton, Forbidden Planet International, forbiddenplanet.co.uk/
