  “Jeff the Land Shark: Superstar #1” is a super fun, chaotic, Saturday morning cartoon ride! Kelly Thompson is off to a strong start here and I’m absolutely loving the ride already. It feels like I’m seeing some of the exact stuff of what goes on in my head and it’s a wonder to behold. Read Full Review

  Okay: so it IS a bit weird to see Mojo rendered with the same nearly kawaii-level of cuteness that is given to Jeff and Ken and such, but the visuals of the issue are a lot of fun. Writer and artist work well with the characters that they have chosen to work with. It all fits together on the page quite well. It’s sheer fun from beginning to end scarcely a dull or unappealing moment in the whole book. Thompson assembles everything together quite well for another very promising outing with everyone’s favorite, little land shark. Read Full Review

  Jeff the Land Shark: Superstar #1 understands exactly why readers have fallen in love with Jeff and then doubles down on every appealing aspect of the character. Thompson crafts a comic bursting with imagination, from the ridiculous parade of Mojoworld superhero teams to the quiet, charming moments between Jeff and Ken. Tokitokoro's artwork perfectly complements the tone, shifting effortlessly between adorable slice-of-life comedy and explosive superhero action. Beneath all the absurdity is a genuine affection for these characters and the larger superhero genre itself. The result is a comic that feels joyful from beginning to end, delivering laughs, heart, and enough creative energy to make this one of the year's most delightful all-ages books. Read Full Review
