PRAISE FOR EMMA RÍOS AND I.D.: “Ríos shows considerable writing talent to go along with her huge skill as an artist.” —The Onion’s A.V. Club “Her art is nothing short of fantastic.”—The Daily Planet “Emma Ríos’s I.D. is the most promising story here [in ISLAND], drawn in a naturalistic yet subtly unsettling style done in tones of red that keeps its dystopia in the background—at least until it literally crashes through the front door.”—The Comics Journal
