Amazing Montage Press Comics
'TRESPASSERS delivers consistently, updating the sometimes staid mystery genre with a modern sensibility. Please note, though, that 'modern' does not in this instance mean 'gratuitous sex and violence.' Yes, if the plot warrants it, TRESPASSERS can be quite bloody, but only in service to the greater good - telling a fine, well-developed story. '
--Barry Lyga, PREVIEWS

'Zabel's figure work has an uneven, 'underground' quality that successfully gives the characters a more natural quality. Since the characters seem less perfect than, say, a Steve Rude or Mark Schultz characterization, they seem more vulnerable for it.'
