"Any fan of Tim Sale simply has to own this book."

— Ron Richards, iFanboy video podcast

"A must for anyone who's a fan of Sale's art; it's the 'art of' book that you'll be quite proud to leave sitting on your coffee table. Tim Sale: Black and White has restored my faith in the idea that good art books are still being produced."

— Greg McElhatton, Read About Comics

"Commentary and surprisingly frank interviews with Sale break up the pretty pictures." (A-)

— A.V. Club

Just over twenty years in comics might seem premature for a retrospective volume of an artist's works, but Tim Sale's dedication to his art and his motivation to improve himself makes this work an engaging read."

— Voice of Youth Advocates

"It's evocative, lovely art and a joy to behold." (Five out of five Tonys)

— Tony Isabella, Tony's Tips

"Sale's approach seems out of touch with the mainstream... in a good way."

— Tom Spurgeon, The Comics Reporter

"A lavishly produced, oversized hardcover, it's very much worth it to anyone who has a curiosity or love for the artist in question."

— Mark Mason, Comics Waiting Room

"The paintings were cool, so is this book. Quite worth the money."

— Parka, Parkablogs
