Andy Oliver, Broken Frontier:
“When colour is used more extensively it mirrors its story’s subject matter. In ‘Too Much on Your Plate’ (above), for example, it becomes overwhelming, stifling and eventually incredibly intense. All in order to recount the story of an unappreciated and oppressed wife as her frustrations begin to boil over into brutal daydreams. Also toying with form, ‘At the End’ applies the haunting contrast between white space and deep, intense black forms to visit the experiences of a man who one day realises that his shadow now extends into forever.
Managing an unlikely synthesis of the playful and the uncomfortable Sugar & Other Stories is as notable for its experimental curiosity with the medium as it is for its subversion of traditional comics horror.”
