“THE PRIVATE EYE offers the pulpy thrills of the best comics—secret identities, private investigators, and a villain with a rocket—while taking a serious look at the fear that our digital shenanigans will ultimately doom us.”
–SLATE MAGAZINE
“Vaughan’s pay-what-you-can webcomic blends two irresistible genres — sci-fi and detective stories — and offers some of the most eye-catching images I saw in comics this year.”
–USA TODAY“Vaughan and Martin aren’t just tapping into paranoid fears of the present for TPE’s subtext. They’re also mining the ephemeral, ever-eroding collective memory of the past, too.”–KOTAKU“Vaughan is a master world-builder and Martin has a remarkable talent for creating detailed, living worlds, so it’s no surprise that this is such an engrossing read.”–THE A.V CLUB“An excellent meditation on privacy and what we’ll need to do in the future to protect ours.”–FUSION“A strange vision of the future where citizens dress up like animals to protect their privacy and unlicensed journalists have become private detectives — and with our current fixation on oversharing, it’s a future that seems plausible, in spite of its more outlandish elements.”–THE VERGE“Vaughan’s talent for fascinating concepts and engaging characters is on full display here and Martin’s art is also impressively elaborate and wildly varied in depicting the sheer breadth of human disguise-work.”–CRAVE“For as many elements as The Private Eye borrows from your traditional noir, it is surprisingly vibrant. Colorist Munsta Vicente has given Martin’s gorgeous visuals just what they need to stand out from the pack. Not that Martin’s expressive character work, inventive settings, and endless array of masks didn’t already stand out, mind you, it’s just that the colors are what make this comic get seared into your brain the same way a hot iron brands a cow.”–IGN
