Joe McCulloch, The Comics Journal “‘A Different Feeling for the Reader’: Inside Glaeolia 2”

Manga Machinations Podcast “‘I… in good conscience… recommend that you spend $50 on this.”

André Habet, SOLRAD “‘Telephone, Sleep, Music’ by Kawakatsu Tokushige illustrates the malaise of searching for such connections in a pre-COVID world where, despite missed attempts, people somehow still found themselves back on the same dancefloors, seeking some discontinuity from their routine to make life momentarily memorable amid the blurring passage of time. … There’s poetry to this type of intimate portrayal, the attention given to moments that we might toss off as unremarkable the next day but comprise the majority of what it can feel like to be alone in a crowd… ‘Telephone, Sleep, Music’ gets what it is to yearn and to be unsatisfied with what’s presented, and yet, inevitably, desire revives itself and we enter the clubs again to merge into the mass.”

Simply Gee “Oh my goodness, I am in love… so many of these just were amazing… I cannot tell you how exciting it was to receive this book… The choices that the staff make for compiling these books are wonderful… there’s so much incredibly cool, incredibly interesting heartwarming, introspective comics across these two volumes… it honestly is some of the most exciting and experimental stuff that we see in manga. You owe it to yourself to read some of these, honestly. If you are a fan of comics, if you are a fan of art, and art as an expression and as an exercise in exploring humanity and emotionality and how we exist, then this is some of the best that I’ve come across honestly… Everything about this book was wonderful.”
