A.D. Selected Reviews

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is ad-paperback.jpg

“Josh Neufeld is a master storyteller. A.D. is intimate and yet seismic in its scope. Through seven finely drawn lives, we end up with new understanding of both devastation and redemption. His art takes us to the depth of the humanity of those we cherish.”

Cornel West

“. . . Neufeld has created a work of art that becomes both social history and political commentary. . . . Neufeld’s honesty, integrity and attention to detail grabs readers and make us empathize with survivors. . . . Neufeld does not make propaganda; he makes art that speaks a political and humanitarian message: never leave people behind. A. D. [is] powerful and gratifying. The novel becomes an everlasting memorial to the lives of a city, its people and perhaps a generation of survivors.”

The Comics Journal

“A.D. is raw and painful — down to the detailed depictions of ruined homes and the frenzied dialogue among friends. . . . For many New Orleanians, the story hits all too close to home.”

Newsweek

“[A.D. is] bristling with attitude and pungent with social awareness.”

Kirkus

“It took Josh Neufeld only 13 panels to storyboard New Orleans’ worst nightmare.”

Gambit Weekly

“[A.D.]’s stirring images are sure to linger in memory, perhaps even longer than hours of news footage already have.”

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Terms of Service Selected Reviews

Terms of Service

“Cartoon versions of Keller and Neufeld [are] smart, likable guides . . . explain[ing] the pitfalls of living in the age of Big Data. Terms is funny, informative, and ridiculously readable (and re-readable). And you’ll probably come away from it knowing more than you would from an 8,000-word explanatory piece on the same topic.”

Editor & Publisher

“An innovative online graphic novella . . . [that] uses comics to create a detailed but accessible narrative about the rise of electronic surveillance in a number of forms.”

Publishers Weekly

“Terms of Service is a timely look at big data and digital privacy. . . and big discrimination, and it uses the storytelling tools of the graphic novel well. . . . And instead of telling you what you should think about online privacy, big data, and the implications for our future, it encourages you to ask those questions yourself.”

ZDNet

“Bahrain: Lines in Ink, Lines in the Sand” Selected Reviews

Bahrain: Lines in Ink, Lines in the Sand

“A compelling new work of visual journalism.”

“Comic Riffs,” The Washington Post

“Josh Neufeld will break your heart in 18 pages.”

“Robot 6,” Comic Book Resources

“An excellent, accessible piece that really helps make clear a smaller eddy of the complex, swirling events of the Arab Spring.”

Heidi MacDonald, The Beat

“Stowaway” Selected Reviews

“… [a] harrowing tale . . . in an awesome, immersive, wonderfully illustrated format.”

Gizmodo

“The images, by artist Josh Neufeld, along with the additional layers of sound, animation, dynamic paging, and interactive web-based content, transform Fanuel’s tale from a passive script to the portrait of a real person in a real place. Furthermore, the use of interactive content incorporates the reader’s presence into the story.”

The Rumpus

The Influencing Machine Selected Reviews

The Influencing Machine
The Influencing Machine

“This is a comic book with zest and brains — and it just might help a reader understand the brave new world.”

The New Yorker

“It’s easy to imagine The Influencing Machine becoming mandatory reading in journalism classes around the country.”

Associated Press

“. . . mind-opening, thought-provoking, and incredibly timely. . . . [A]n absolutely spectacular read: serious without being weighty, accessible without being thin. It’s one of those graphic nonfiction volumes, like Understanding Comics, that shows just how well suited comics are to explaining and exploring serious subjects.”
