Of course, we all think Hero Camp is a great read, but don't take our word for it! Here are what some other creators of your favorite comic books think about Hero Camp!

“Hero Camp is a unique take on heroes and villains in the current comic book market. Not only is the premise fresh and fun, but the protagonist is a warm-hearted kid-friendly character that makes us adults root for him too. We can't wait to read MUCH more!”
Jim Di Bartolo and Laini Taylor-Di Bartolo, co-creators of The Drowned from Image Comics.

“Mini-comics the way mini-comics should be done.”
Josh Fialkov, writer of Western Tales of Terror and creator of Poorly Drawn Animals.

“Hero Camp is a fresh twist on superheroes. Robbi Rodriguez’ art truly needs to be seen.”
Jonathan Luna, artist of Ultra.
“Working around a neat concept, Hero Camp weaves a humorous, sensitive and downright rollicking yarn. A real treat.”
Phil Elliott, artist of Tupelo and Illegal Alien, and colorist on Paul Grist’s Jack Staff.

“What Greg and Robbi have done is nothing short of refreshing. They’ve taken the teen superhero genre and while using all the familiar conceits, they’ve injected heart, pathos and compassion. They’ve tapped into all that makes adolescence and being a teenager such a pain in the ass while at the same time showing why it is the best time of our lives. Hero Camp is one full color 22 page comic book issue away from greatness.”
Vito Delsante, writer of The Mercury Chronicles.

“Greg Thompson and Robbi Rodriquez’s… quirky black and white mini-sized comic book is simple yet incredibly entertaining, and it’s a shame that not too many people have heard of it.”
Marc Lombardi, reviewer at www.simplyjd.com/reviews.shtml
“Hello Mutta, Hello Fatta. I’ve been reading, Hero Camp’a! Ok, ok, so that’s not so witty. Thank God Hero Camp is. This thing may be a mini-comic, but trash all the preconceived notions you have of the mini. This thing is sharp, fun, and well done. So pitch a tent, roast the marshmallows, and read this bad boy by fire light. You’ll get that warm feeling all over. Promise!”
Mike Hawthorne, artist of Ballad of Sleeping Beauty, 30 Days in Europe, Queen and Country and Whiskey Dickel as well as the creator of Hysteria.

Azad, creator of Sammy: Tourist Trap and A Very Sammy Day.

“A fun and interesting take on a well-worn genre. Really enjoyed it and looking forward to more!”

“Hero Camp is a novel idea I wish I’d thought of myself, written and illustrated with style and affection. It’s fun and has wonderfully interesting characters. There’s no reason it’s not a television series right now!”
Todd Livingston, co-writer of Black Forest and Wicked West.

“Hero Camp is a swell read. Great concept, great characters… a very well put together package. I’d recommend it to anyone who enjoys superhero books with a twist.”
Robert Kirkman, writer of Invincible, Walking Dead, Brit, Captain America, Marvel Team-Up, Marvel 2099 and anything else he can get his hands on.

“Hero Camp is the sort of comic you just want more of ! There needs to be at least a 180 page graphic novel that you read and read till you’ve memorized every line, every nuance, and then pass it off to a friend and talk about it for years and years. Greg Thompson & Robbi Rodriguez are true storytellers bringing something new and exciting back into the comics medium.”
Jason Baroody, artist of Clockmaker Act 2.

“Search high and low, in both the indie and mainstream comics titles… you won’t find many examples of what Hero Camp has to offer. These guys are about storytelling, and they know their stuff. Fun, accessible and above all, well-told… this book is a keeper!”
Ande Parks, inker of Green Arrow, Wonder Woman, Superman, Catwoman and many others, writer of Union Station and creator of Uncle Slam and Firedog.

“!BANG SNAPPIN COMICS FUN!”
Miles Gunter, writer of NYC Mech, Bastard Samurai, BPRD Soul of Venice and Terminator Rise of the Machines.

“Hero Camp is a delight; my only complaint is that there isn’t more of it. Here’s hoping some savvy publisher picks this one up and gets it out to a broader audience.”
J. M. DeMatteis, writer of Abadazad, Formerly Known as the Justice League, Moonshadow, Amazing Spider-Man, Daredevil, Adventures of Superman, Marvel Team-Up, Spectre, and many, many more.
“Do yourself a favor, let the folks have a summer to themselves and enroll at Hero Camp. I never went to camp as a kid, but I wish I had if it’s half as fun as this book. A great read with a lot of really fun and interesting characterization. Robbi’s work makes leaps forward with each page and I can’t wait to see the super size edition that they’ve got planned. It’s kind of like having a slice of saturday morning each time you read it.”
Andy MacDonald, artist of NYC Mech.

“A lot of times you’ll read a minicomic and think, ‘Wow, these guys have potential.’ What’s so impressive about Hero Camp is that Greg and Robbi are realizing their potential at a phenomenal rate. The book started off nicely enough. But each issue kicks the story up a notch, and with each issue Robbi’s art gets several steps better. It’s a damn fine read. And it’s fun, which is too often a missing ingredient in modern comics. Its days as a minicomic are numbered. Check it out!”
B. Clay Moore, writer of Hawaiian Dick and the upcoming Battle Hymn and Five Dead Men.
