“PARADISO is a strange trip. It's not about cool heroes or epic fights, but rather haunting images of death, destruction, and loss. The robots, androids, and mechanical men who populate the pages are the stuff of nightmares. Its vision of the future feels like the works that came out in the 1980s, in a good way. All this is to say that PARADISO feels all at once nostalgic and totally unique.” -Nerdist

“A novel disguised as a comic book, PARADISO takes the best bits of Western & Eastern comics and fuses them together into a visually stunning, yet utterly dystopian, sci-fi tale.” -Ryan O'Sullivan (VOID TRIP, The Evil Within)

“This is warm, human, beautifully-executed science fiction, building an intricate world with subtlety and grace. First it draws the reader in, then it grips them by the throat. I'm hooked.” -Al Ewing (Royals, The Ultimates, New Avengers)

“This is a funky bit of sci-fi with plenty of secrets to unfurl in the coming chapters-definitely worth checking out.” -The Oregonian

“PARADISO is an ambitious, tense and textural body of work. Ram, Pramanik, Kelly, and Bidkar have created a tangible world; you can feel the rusty walls, taste the dusty air, kick the dirt beneath your feet. Welcome to Paradiso.” -Declan Shalvey (INJECTION, SAVAGE TOWN)

“Dev, Dearbhla, Alex, and Aditya are an impressively harmonious art team-inks, colors, and letters merge and move in beguiling unison to create a captivating singular vision. Imagery from PARADISO has been bouncing around my head for days, weeks, months after reading. Unique, exciting work by all.” -Tradd Moore (LUTHER STRODE, Venom, Ghost Rider)
