For "Battle Cry" from Bloody Pulp Magazine #1
"Battle Cry is a war story. Just to give you an idea, thinking Hernandez - kind of a cross between Jaime and Gilberto in style and storytelling. Extremely well-done. Just good, solid story-telling."
-Bruce Rosenberger (Comic Book Noise)
For Karass & The Strange Ones
"A humane and lively publication."
-Kurt Vonnegut
"A fine journal of post-adolescent suicidal introspective discourse."
-Ink Nineteen
"Very personal, real."
-Red Fins Komics
"Great illustrations...The Strange Ones is a damn good comic."
-Futility
"This is my favorite fanzine of all time. In issue #7 there is a quote from The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. Throughout the issues I've seen references to The Pale Saints and Belly but mostly this is a literary/comic fanzine. It is filled with ongoing stories that continue with each issue and real feelings that allow the reader to immediately relate."
-Starethrough
"It's a good zine...the comics make you feel warm inside, and happy that you're sitting there reading them."
-The Rain...
"Jeremy Jusay heads up this team of artists and poets emanating from SVA. His stories are dark and brooding and beautiful to look at."
-Checkerboard Kids
"Karass - Beautiful comic entitled The Strange Ones follows a couple of teenagers through NYC, while poems like 'A Conversation with Sis,' 'Dunkin Donuts,' and 'A Day at Friendly's' take a thoughtful look at day-to-day life."
-The New Museum of Contemporary Art
"Karass #8, the anniversary issue, by Jeremy: geegollygonads, this wins first place for art. The comics are T-rific...I'm so envious. His little theatershow called The Strange Ones starring Franck and Anjeline is really beautiful. The story line is realistic. Beats Melrose Place. Franck always has a different slogan on his button, which is enuf to make you order this. The melancholy poetry helps balance it all out."
-Cheshire
"Jeremy makes beautiful comics. We are quite diFFerent in that he is artistically talented. Part of why his stuFF rocks is cos I'm always like: how is this written by a boy? His big project is The Strange Ones which seems to be the ongoing tales of Franck and Anjeline. They are tearworthy if yr in a sweet enuf mood."
-What I Would've Asked
For Portfolio
"Jeremy Jusay [is an] interesting artist with a lively interactive website...Well done, Jeremy, you've earned our praise."
-Shout Magazine
For "Commute"
"The best feature [of Jeremy Jusay Portfolio] is an interactive game about traveling through the New York Transit system. Any game that you win by going home and going back to sleep, truly understands its slacker audience."
-Shout Magazine
For "I Close My Eyes"
"I found it very compelling! The art is wonderful—you have a good eye! I like the dialogue and introspection. And finally a graphic novel that is devoid of action, sex and violence. This has heart and also displays that we 'dreamers' share the same sensibilities."
-Francisco Aliwalas
"...Wonderful and bittersweet..."
-Jesse Reklaw, nonDairy Comics
For "Circumcised at 13"
"A quick, well-done anecdotal story that the title describes quite well."
-Kluttered Visions
For Re-Lease
"Depressing shit. Therefore, it is good...It's a comic about a petty love crush to die for, about how the most insignificant things—or so they may appear to others—are usually the most important. Highly recommended."
-Futility
For Semen
"Some songs are kinda cheesy, but I actually thought that most of them were really good."
-Synthetic White Fur
