Do you have a graphic novel or trade comic that you want me
to review? I gladly accept review copies from any publisher with
the following qualifications:
- Subject: Anything
except hardcore porn and collections of mainstream strip comics
(e.g., Garfield).
- Format: Any bound book or
collection, including works on CD-ROM. I will not
review loose issues of comics, even if they tell a single
story, so if you were thinking of sending me issues #1-8 of Comic
Book Z, don't bother. I also don't review fotonovelas, kids'
picture books (unless they are specifically done in comics format),
art-only collections, Big Little books, annual/anniversary/Christmas/extra-thick
issues of regular comics, and collections of single-panel comics
unless they tell some kind of story. However, you can always
query me about specific
books; for particularly interesting titles I'm willing to
break some of these rules.
- Language: English only, please.
I simply can't read anything but English. However, I love material
from non-English-speaking countries that has been translated!
- Age of Book: Any. It doesn't have to have been published recently;
I want to review backlist titles as well as new stuff. However,
if I already reviewed the title
in my book, I won't review it again.
If you don't have access to my book and want to know if I reviewed
something, feel
free to ask.
- Non-Comics-Format Books and Miscellaneous
Items: I am certainly willing
to review things about graphic novels and comics, and I might
be willing to review things on related subjects (e.g., novels
about superheroes).
Again, if you're not sure whether your title is appropriate
for me to review, ask
me directly. I don't want you to waste money sending me stuff
that I won't review. If you're sure your book is up my alley,
send it to:
- Aviva Rothschild
- C/O Emperative, Inc.
- 4720 Walnut St. #100
- Boulder, CO 80301
Please include the name and email address of a contact person
at your company, any press releases you would normally put in
the book, and mentions of any awards the book has been nominated
for or has won. Also, indicate whether you want me to point a
prospective purchaser toward your website. In the absence of
such a preference, I'll provide an Amazon link (if one exists).
I will make every effort to review a book quickly. However,
I can't guarantee anything. |
