"""The second book in the Shame trilogy is just astonishing. This is a dark tale that has some moments of empathy and has me wonder is evil inherent, taught, or is there simply existence. With the efforts of Bolton, this makes the story extra vibrant...has set my standard for the genre."" (Blake Hamilton, Destroy the Cyborg's Best in Comic Books 2013) ""Shame is dark but spellbinding, and the art's gorgeous realism makes the tale compelling and take on a life of its own. This is a grown-up's fairy tale that demands one's attention and to remind people of the need to be good in this world. 5 STARS. BUY THIS."" (John K. Kirk, Pop Mythology) ""This book is a pure joy to behold. Every page crackles with a sumptuous, organic energy. Highly recommended."" (Paul Pope, Eisner award winning artist and writer.) ""Sensuous art and luscious coloring. A visually unique book."" (P. Craig Russell, Eisner award winning writer and artist.) ""Beautiful and haunting, Shame looks and feels like a dream."" (Fangoria Magazine) ""Bolton's fully-painted art makes it feel like a comic book that escaped from the Renaissance, and the tragic narrative will keep you hooked."" (Mike Donachie, Toronto Star)"
