"Astrodog is a playful antidote to many of today's male-centric, 'mature' comics. It's a fun, kid-friendly, girl-friendly futuristic adventure: Nancy Drew meets the Jetsons . . . with a little Scooby-Doo thrown in for good measure!" (J. M. DeMatteis, writer, 'Abadazad,' 'The Amazing Spider-Man,' 'Formerly Known As The Justice League.')

Here are comments from those who have picked up 'The Sorcerer's Children!"

"The drawing of the world tree is magnificant. You can tell its more than just a tree. You can see and feel it's magic. The story is filled with all sorts of wonderous magical creatures and people. Jack O' the Green is one a mysterious forest God who has lost lots of his power to Graidon. . . . Lots of questions are answered. But the quest is not yet ended. They continue on. You will want to continue following their adventures as well," (Richard Vasseur, reviewer for Jazma Online.com)

" The Sorcerer's Children is a rich tale of fantasy and magic, told with passion . . . and a touch of poetry." (J. M. DeMatteis, writer, 'Spectre,' 'Formerly Known As The Justice League,' 'The Amazing Spider-Man.')

"I very much like what you're doing with it. The text approach with the comics is very effective." (Marv Wolfman, writer, 'Crisis On Infinite Earths,' 'The Teen Titans,' and creator of Marvel's 'Blade.')

"Alison Williams' The Sorcerer's Children is a fantasy epic of the best sort: as intricately woven as a celtic knot, rich in characterizations, history, humour, and adventure, with lush, beautiful art to match., rendered in subtle hues of grey. Alison takes the reader on a journey through a curious world peopled with vibrant, believeable characters, just as all the best 'once upon a time' tales do. Highly recommended." (Stuart Immonen, artists/writer, 'The Mighty Thor,' 'The Fantastic Four,' 'Superman.')

"SillWill PressCreator Alison Williams has produced a beautifully illustrated fantasy story with strong female characters called The Sorceror's Children. . . . Ask about it at your local comic shop!" (Women of Gotham, website)

"I briefly met Alison Williams, author and publisher of The Sorcerer's Children, at ChicagoCon. Unfortunately, I was in the middle of talking to Colleen Doran at the Friends of Lulu booth, so I really didn't get to know Ms. Williams that well. I didn't quite blow her off, but I felt like I'd been less than my standard, friendly self. I felt even worse when I actually got around to reading The Sorcerer's Children. It's an excellently drawn, fairytale-like action/fantasy with a lot of heart. It's a self-published affair, but it doesn't look self-published. It looks beautiful. You can tell that the whole comic is a labor of love. It's also a Canadian comic. Canada produces some of the best fantasy comics around (Xeno's Arrow and Galaxion lead the excellent pack). I also enjoy the Canadian scene because it seems to have a lot of creative and talented female authors and artists in it. Alison Williams is definitely one of them. I made up my apparent rudeness at ChicagoCon by contacting Ms. Williams for an interview. She's an interesting subject, brimming with enthusiasm for comics and fantasy, aware of the pitfalls of the comics industry, and I like her taste in comics and movies". (Barb Lien, interviewer for 'Sequential Tart;' see the whole interview at here.

Here are comments about Alison's work on "The Humpty Dumpty Chronicles."

"Williams' black and white artwork matches the tone and setting of the story. It's wonderfully detailed, with heavy inks. It reminds me of old woodblock prints. I especially like the two-page splash panel in which Old Meg leads King Godwyn through the underground tunnel to Hidden Hedge. Small panels of Godwyn and Meg are scattered across the foreground, while they weave their way through the tunnel in the background." (reviewer Rebecca Salek, 'Sequential Tart')
