“Tripwire covers such a wide variety of topics in the world of news, entertainment and the arts, and covers them so well, that it’s pretty much become my go-to source for what’s going on in media. I know if Tripwire is covering a subject, it’s not only interesting, fun and informative, it’s also legit.”- Bill Sienkiewicz, illustrator

”Tripwire has been for three decades the touchstone of comic book culture in the U.K and one of the leading periodicals dedicated to this narrative art form. Incisive, smart and always relevant.” – Guillermo del Toro (Oscar winning director, The Shape Of Water)

“Tripwire is indispensable. One of the last great homes for comics journalism.” – Jeff Lemire (creator, Sweet Tooth, co-creator, Gideon Falls)
