"Graham is a special cartoonist - able to describe epic worlds as well as subtle, sincere feelings. I found Graham's memoir comics beautiful, painful, and relatable. Like life, Surviving on Mars is not always comforting but I'm glad to know that I am not alone in the universe." Jim Rugg, Cartoonist Kayfabe, Street Angel, Hulk Grand Design "Brandon Grahams diary comics are full of interesting reflections, sometimes quotidian, funny, or surreal, more often deep and universal, but always expressed with a vulnerability and honesty that is really rare to find." Maria Llovet, CRAVE, LUNA, FAITHLESS, LOUD, PORCELAIN An inventive look into the slice-of-life visual artists diary, comics as confessional, comics as drawn memory. Paul Pope, Battling Boy, THB, Batman: Year 100, Heavy Liquid, 100% "Whether masterfully creating vast, fantastical, sci-fi worlds or sharing a quiet, thoughtful moment of his life, Brandon handles both with equal aplomb. Surviving On Mars is a must read! Troy Nixey, Trout, Vinegar Teeth, Jenny Finn "An artist tries to stay above the churn of depression in this low-key lovely graphic memoir." - Publishers Weekly
