Praise
“Jaymes should be commended on how well he did in writing Sons of Chaos. Equally commended is Ale Aragon, the artist. With his sketchy style, the book felt constantly in motion. The battle scenes, however, where were Aragon shined with an unflinching eye to the harsh realities, such as people committing suicide to escape a massacre. Then there are the monstrous faces that he gives the soldiers in battle, killing each other on the battlefield. It’s very jarring and real in the brutality, but there are some softer moments as well.” –4YE
“You can tell the work and love that went into making this book. The writer and artist both put so much of themselves into it. It is an epic tale.” –First Comics News
“In his fictionalized retelling of Greece’s 1821 war for independence against the Ottoman Turks, writer Chris Jaymes has crafted a solemn tale of secret love and unfathomable loss. …Sons of Chaos is ultimately a story of fathers and sons, in many ways lost boys robbed of empathy and compassion by torturous deprivations inflicted by other broken men. It tells of the ruinous burden of vengeance on the hearts and minds of those imprisoned by it, and it’s poignancy cannot be understated in the world we find ourselves in.” –Comic Attack
