"Part advice manual for aspiring cartoonists, part memoir. Tomine... reflects candidly and wittily on topics including the solitary nature of cartooning, writing to artist idols, parenthood's influence on his art, and adapting a graphic novel into a screenplay." ― The New Yorker
Aya: Claws Come Out and Vera Bushwack make The Washington Post's Best Graphic Novels
For The Washington Post's 10 Best Graphic Novels of 2024, Jacob Brogan also recommends two from D&Q:
"With an energetic visual style, [Aya: Claws Come Out] bounces from human drama to human drama, maintaining a pronounced sense of delight even when it takes up weightier issues."
"[In Vera Bushwack,]Burwash explores and pushes against the boundaries of gender while questioning what true independence entails. What emerges is something like a love story about learning to care for oneself."
