"Not since Eric Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front has a novel--graphic or otherwise--been as powerful, stirring, unsettling, and thought-provoking... THE OTHER SIDE is nothing short of a true classic."
--Library Journal
"A stunner of a comic. In fact, few war stories in any medium blend such horror with such a poetic humanization of the enemy."
--Playboy.com
"Because the characters and their manias brought on by the war's atrocities are so compelling, the only bad part about THE OTHER SIDE is that it has to end."
--Washington Post
"This book isn't trying to be important, it just is. One of the very best comics Vertigo has published since PREACHER.
Highest possible recommendation."
--Brian K. Vaughan, writer of PRIDE OF BAGHDAD
"I've said it before but I'll say it again:
This is a fucking outstanding book...
This gets my Highest Personal Recommendation."
--Brian Wood, writer of DMZ and DEMO
