Description
In Dilraj Mann's long awaited graphic novel debut, all eyes turn to East London, where freakish monsters and megalomaniacal property developers are competing to see who can destroy it first. The only thing that stands in the way of the apocalypse? Hipsters, hotties, and nerds. It's time to throw down--and look sharp as hell while doing so.

Reviews
"A beautiful, thrilling graphic novel, likely to appeal to 'Scott Pilgrim' enthusiasts or to fans of films such as Attack the Block and Cloverfield."
--Ann Foster, School Library Journal "Mann's vibrant panels perfectly capture the tensions fueling the class battle simmering beneath the narrative."
--Kirkus Reviews
"The combination of Mann's artistry and intriguing story make it almost impossible to not finish in one sitting. Readers will likely be begging for a sequel."
--Booklist "[Dilraj Mann] takes Miyazaki's environmentalist perspective and shifts it toward urban preservation."
--The AV Club
"Dalston Monsterzz calls to mind a huge variety of influences, mostly filmic: Akira, Attack the Block, Hayao Miyazaki, The Warriors, A Clockwork Orange. They're all in there, chopped up together into a sort of multicolored pâté."
--Paste Magazine "The monsters within the story are gorgeously illustrated and while the story at first seems like a simple...the socio-political aspects of the story and some intriguing last-minute twists keep things interesting."
--The Newest Rant
"Dalston Monsterzz is something special... and exactly what I would like to see from modern graphic novels."
