“Your new favorite animal rights activist girl gang debuts in Lab Raider… with punk rock energy.”
-Justin Partridge, Newsarama
"Lab Raider lands right in the sweet spot, delivering a gripping story with a worthy message that resonates rather than suffocates...Boasting strong characters, striking artwork & an impressively tight structure, this is an animal rights activism series with a dark, violent edge."
-Craig Neilson-Adams, Big Comic Page
"A fast-paced, introspective commentary on human relationships with nature and our entitlement to beings we deem lesser for our own gain."
- CJ Pendragon, Sirens of Sequentials
"[Lab Raider] puts the topic of animal rights front and center with a frightening take on it that, in the scheme of things, doesn't seem all that farfetched. That's what makes this a scary comic. It is dangerously close to real possibilities."
- James Ferguson, Horror DNA
