• “So much here to engage your mind, heart & gut. All flawlessly rendered by Navarro and Cabrera. I can think of no finer contemporary art team. 1 look and you’ll want them to illustrate every book out there! Their work is well-matched by Hammer’s script. Intelligent and fluid.”

• “Navarro presents plenty of emotive expressions throughout Von Bach to display characters intent and dedication. Any task at hand gives appropriate use of both body and facial language. This works twice as well in the use of the decompression technique for both dramatic and comedic effects. The above mention of the doorbell and its continual usage isn’t just a character moment for the title character, it’s meta-satire on critics. The sarcastic tone it casts isn’t shaming acts for its own sake, it’s making the most out of one moment.
Cabrera serves the dual role as colorist and letterer. In scenes like the creation of a CGI body double, Cabrera goes to the lengths of adding as much detail as possible. The net paneling alone is extremely notable in capturing the efforts of real time artists. His lettering certainly wastes no time in guiding the reader through panels efficiently. Rather than focus on one little scene like it’s some great art project, this method makes things move as if in real time. The technique makes the presentation look more like a movie which fits rather well into the setting”

• “The artwork is beautiful and well-executed. I am very impressed with the comic’s vibrant warm colours. But what is really interesting is the eye for detail and ability to recreate light. In fact, you can distinctively see a change of lighting in places where we would see them in real life; outside, indoors, reflected on someone’s glasses, and from a tablet’s screen.”

• “It’s beautifully paced and lain out through a number of variations on pages with five horizontal tiers. Facundo Percio and Hernan Cabrera do a wonderful job capturing the larger than life aspect of the “real” gods and demons come to witness Glycon’s unveiling, mixed with the mundane nature of Glycon’s puppet construction and a nice likeness of Moore himself and his “remarkable shoes”.”

• “Additionally, I love Hernan Cabrera’s color work. Hernan adds this layer of grit that fits the tone of the story super well. It feels like a war movie, and that last page finally hits with that punch of supernatural to it. It’s a great team up on the art here, and it’s consistent throughout.”

• “Colorist Hernan Cabrera somehow finds a way to make Maan’s art look even better than when I first see it in black and white, (…) He grounds the war in grittiness, while bringing a frightening intensity to the horror.”

• “The artwork shows an equal level of care and craft. Though artists Carlos Cabrera, Mariano Laclaustra and Fer Centurion usually work on The Twelfth Doctor series, they prove just as capable of caricaturing David Tennant as they do Peter Capaldi. The action sequences are as thrilling as anything you’d see on the show and the colors by Hernan Cabrera look fantastic throughout.”

• “Helped tremendously by Navarro’s art, this series has a dynamic structure like few other books. You can track each punch, kick and flip across the page and you truly get a sense that these events are unfolding on panel, in real time. No matter your feelings on the substance of the narrative, you’ll be able to appreciate the style of this art. Utilising faded limbs and even entire bodies to represent the stages of motion, this is a series that you’ll come away from with an unquestionable cathartic sense of adventure that will having you revved up and ready for more.”

• “Navarro’s artwork has impressed me from the beginning as it has been intense and action packed with a nice eye for detail within the facial features of each Orphan as they grapple with whatever problem is set before them.”

• “The artwork by Mariano Navarro continues to impress me on every page as his images emulate the action that occurs. It is not overdone and it works well with an additional expertly utilized splash of coloring that makes the pages jump out at you (Thank you, Gabriel Cassata). The many different looks of the characters are likewise drawn well covering all the Orphans in a full spectrum. I believe that Navarro’s use of facial close-ups dig into the essence of the characters quite interestingly.”

• “Still, Cabrera’s colors are what really make this work. They feel alive and dark, like a spaceship with the lights down, and the only spots of brightness are Nomi’s tablet or big splashes of red.”

• “The art in Cloaks looked consistently solid throughout the whole issue. Navarrohas a very clean style of art that suits the modern day setting Cloaks takes place in. Sometimes when telling a story set in the present real world, sometimes the art can feel flat or boring. However Navarro’s has this lightness to it that makes the story seem brighter.”

• “Mariano Navarro’s artwork is bright, crisp and colorful. Despite the tragic elements in the story, it never comes off as sullen, and the art reinforces the fun tone of the script while never going so far as to make it seem silly. Navarro’s art reminds me of the styles of such fun artists as Val Semeiks and Paul Pelletier, and he does a solid job of conveying the main character’s youth.”

• “This was actually one of the few comics that I have started in the past few months that I was not able to stop reading. Part of that was the exciting artwork from Mariano Navarro that quick the action well-paced and the characters more approachable”

• “The artwork by Mariano Navarro has excellent detail and he depicts the many different looks of the characters very well. There is a pretty large ensemble of Orphans, so it would be easy to go light on the ones in the backgrounds, but he does not. Likewise, his facial close-ups are very telling as you get an expert glimpse into the souls of the characters.”

“The Good
First thing I noticed just picking up this issue was how smooth the art was. Not just in the literal sense, though the lines are really smooth, but it just feels smooth to the eyes. The thick, yet at times contoured lines balances very well to the minute details, especially in physical appearance. Thicker lines at the jaws emphasize a knitted eyebrow and make the cell shading come and go in cohesive gradients rather than blocks of color.”

• “Mariano Navarro drops some seriously good artwork that has detail and depicts the many faces of the orphans to their varying degrees. It would have been easy to go basic with the characters, but Navarro does not and he draws the orphans with a strong sense of individuality.“

• “NAVARRO’S ART IS VIBRANT AND CLEAR
Newcomer Mariano Navarro does an excellent job matching the fast-paced plot with easily understood and vibrant artwork. Whether it’s action or interaction between the characters, I found myself drawn into the book.”

“Navarro’s successful de-aging of his characters’ faces make the flashbacks clear without textboxes, and this ease in temporal transitions is a testament to the creative team’s strong mechanics and restraint.”

“Mariano Navarro’s art is perfect for this story as his faces are all very well defined and distinct. Since there are about seven characters to track in the issue–and that’s just the Orphans–it’s important that all of the characters are easy to pick out at a glance.”

“One of the most appealing features of the series, beyond the fact that it stems from the mind of such an eminent storyteller, are the colors. Their simplicity, and consistency are selling features, and the palette is duly sepulchral, near-Gothic, with excellent contrast in purples, golds, and reds that may actually be an intentional nod to traditional Tarot colors. The colors leave room for the inking, always deeply-lined with an eye toward texture. So much of the story can only fly within a convincingly created visual world, and colorist Hernan Cabrera deserves a great deal of credit for its success, alongside artist Facundo Percio who has an uncanny ability to freeze moments of movement and emotion focused on gesture and facial expression.”
