TestimonialsA small selection of testimonials and quotes we have put together. I remember Jim Shooter and Tom DeFalco talking about comics and saying each page should be capable of being read at a glance. I’ve always thought they were wrong. What I am interested in is something that is original and beautiful that I can turn to again and again. Something with an immense feel-good factor, produced by someone who cares deeply about his work and whose intention is to produce something that can be enjoyed. I love the intricate detail of your work, the sheer “nuttiness” of the contraptions. I even love the villains – I get the feeling that if you met them in the bar after the show they would all be best of mates. John Ridgway - Writer – Artist – “Frontiers” - “Dr Who” – “Prince Valiant” – “ Hal Starr” Cheers, big fan of your work! Peter Magro - Teacher - Malta Thanks, Tim Perkins! My very own Worlds End. How cool is that?! Julie Vigil - Comic Fan God, I love the way you do buildings! Soooo cute! Loving the colour theme and ambience! Oz Ali - Artist and Comic Fan Hi Tim , Thank you very much for sending me " Worlds End " , I admire the designs , I would read the text .... I must learn English !!!! Sorry for not having responded earlier : my PC was a problem , then Michael and I left a few days. Congratulations for your dedication: your French is perfect. Michael and I would be happy to receive you one day in Corrèze , there are many flights between Liverpool and Limoges. (Translated from French) Nicole Joubert Mahé Beautiful work Tim Squire! Richard Stone - Artist and Comic Book Fan I can't wait to read it properly it's a beautiful book. Kenny Gibson - We’ve been away this weekend, so this is the first chance I’ve had to see what you’ve been up to. You are producing some beautiful work.

Tony O'Donnell What's not to like about weird aliens and great composition?
