” “Doris Danger” is terrific stuff! Perfectly apes that Marvel period when Jack Kirby WAS king and everybody was trying to, or being told to, draw like him. But this isn’t cheap lampooning, this is well-conceived and executed comics with knock-out art and hilariously funny stories done with just the right balance of reverence and parody! It’s like taking a trip back to a simpler more sincere time and spending a few minutes with familiar but somehow refreshing old friends! Walk don’t run to your nearest retailer and pick this stuff up–it’s a hoot and a holler and deserves a place on any conscientious collector’s book shelf! I envy you your first experience with DORIS!” – Bruce Jones<\/p>\n

“Very fun and wild retro-cool-monster-driven stuff.” – J.H. Williams III<\/p>\n

“It’s not easy catching the vibe of the classic Kirby Monsters, but Chris Wisnia does it with style. It’s like finding a hidden treasure.” – Steve Niles<\/p>\n

“I love this “giant-monster” stuff!\u00a0 And since Stan and Jack (with or without Larry Lieber and Dick Ayers) aren’t doing it any more, someone’s got to take up the slack.\u00a0 That makes Chris Wisnia the biggest slacker of all!\u00a0 King Kong has been dethroned… and, as Nietzche once said, Godzilla is dead!” – Roy Thomas<\/p>\n

“If you like giant monsters, AND Doris Danger, then how could you possibly not LOVE Doris Danger Giant Monster Stories?\u00a0 Answer: You Couldn’t!” – Peter Bagge<\/p>\n

“Doris Danger’s many things, a comedy, monster theater, adventure, sure, but most of all it’s a tragedy in my eyes, mainly for the fact that I can’t help but be depressed about real life not being this awesome.” – Jhonen Vasquez<\/p>\n

“Bullets can’t stop it! Bombs can’t stop it! You cannot escape! DORIS
\nDANGER! She fascinates you! Compels you! She cannot be resisted! So
\ndon’t even try! Grab this book now — and enjoy your doom!” – Kurt Busiek<\/p>\n

“I read the preview you supplied, and suddenly I was back in the 1950’s. Comics-wise, that’s a good, fun thing. Anything Dick Ayers touches has magic for me. People out there! Read this! Have some fun! Smile! Or, at least buy it and support the arts!” – Jim Shooter<\/p>\n
