Rezensionen

"If you love Black Panther, or you like the new Star Wars films with John Boyega, there are other folks writing novelizations and graphic novels you might like... there's a graphic novel of Kindred, that is just as emotionally compelling as the original. It was done by Damian Duffy and John Jennings, who's a premier Afrofuturist graphic artist." Dr. Ayana A.H. Jamieson, Time online

"The thing I'm excited to read next is the graphic novel "Kindred," which is based on Octavia Butler's novel. That's my new travel companion." Joy Bryant, New York Times
