#Testimonials
“A dark, powerful thriller that turns the classic revenge tale inside out.” -John Kissee
“Dan's tale of a driven man intrigued me so that I read and reread this comic over and over. His tight dialogue works well with his whip tight pacing. The pages are crafted in interesting ways. Added with his gorgeous use of colors, I highly recommend jumping into this character led story.” -Doug Wood
“A chilling twist of Edmond Dantes’ story from The Count of Monte Cristo. This is how vengeance stories ought to be retold!” -Pao Xyo
"Alexandre Dumas meets Frank Miller with a dash of magical realism in this thrilling follow-up to The Count of Monte Cristo. Dan puts on a clinic in comics storytelling through his clear panel work and clever use of the medium-- but never loses sight of his characters' arcs and motivations. An innovative revenge narrative to hit the heart and guts alike." -Ben Humeniuk
“Perfect for anyone who loves profound storytelling and swashbuckling adventure.” -Jason Michalski
“Vengeance Must Die is a love letter to vengeance, death, and to storytelling itself. Pure passion has clearly been poured into every page.

Michael Miller
