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&#8217;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&#8217;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&#8217;t run to your nearest retailer and pick this stuff up&#8211;it&#8217;s a hoot and a holler and deserves a place on any conscientious collector&#8217;s book shelf! I envy you your first experience with DORIS!&#8221; &#8211; Bruce Jones<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Very fun and wild retro-cool-monster-driven stuff.&#8221; &#8211; J.H. Williams III<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not easy catching the vibe of the classic Kirby Monsters, but Chris Wisnia does it with style. It&#8217;s like finding a hidden treasure.&#8221; &#8211; Steve Niles<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love this &#8220;giant-monster&#8221; stuff!\u00a0 And since Stan and Jack (with or without Larry Lieber and Dick Ayers) aren&#8217;t doing it any more, someone&#8217;s got to take up the slack.\u00a0 That makes Chris Wisnia the biggest slacker of all!\u00a0 King Kong has been dethroned&#8230; and, as Nietzche once said, Godzilla is dead!&#8221; &#8211; Roy Thomas<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you like giant monsters, AND Doris Danger, then how could you possibly not LOVE Doris Danger Giant Monster Stories?\u00a0 Answer: You Couldn&#8217;t!&#8221; &#8211; Peter Bagge<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Doris Danger&#8217;s many things, a comedy, monster theater, adventure, sure, but most of all it&#8217;s a tragedy in my eyes, mainly for the fact that I can&#8217;t help but be depressed about real life not being this awesome.&#8221; &#8211; Jhonen Vasquez<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bullets can&#8217;t stop it! Bombs can&#8217;t stop it! You cannot escape! DORIS<br \/>\nDANGER! She fascinates you! Compels you! She cannot be resisted! So<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t even try! Grab this book now &#8212; and enjoy your doom!&#8221; &#8211; Kurt Busiek<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I read the preview you supplied, and suddenly I was back in the 1950&#8217;s.   Comics-wise, that&#8217;s a good, fun thing.  Anything Dick Ayers touches has  magic for me.  People out there!  Read this!  Have some fun!  Smile!
