Review:

Many of the stories contain some of Twain's most cynical, acidic works of satire. Even the adaptation of the little-read Tom Sawyer Abroad, written from Huck Finn's simple-but-secretly-sophisticated point of view, contains a number of digs at religion, science, and imperialism. George Sellas' cartoony style is a nice match for what is also a rip-roaring adventure story... there's a propulsive quality in both prose and art that leaves the reader breathless as they flip from page to page. --Rob Clough, SEQUART

Rick Geary's expansive adaptation of The Mysterious Stranger, turns Twain's tale of witch-hunting and Satanic interference in the 1590s into a spare, haunting meditation on God's indifference. It s a fantastic piece of work, by one of the medium's underappreciated masters. --Noel Murray, AV Club

Twain is, in my opinion, the greatest American writer and his storytelling prowess is beautifully adapted with this series. What better piece of traditional literature to have in graphic novel format? If any piece of comic literature is suited for the high school literature class, this is it. --Chris Wilson, The Graphic Classroom
