"Kim Deitch is the best-kept secret in the avant-comix world. His work is astounding. It keeps reaching new heights and depths." Art Spiegelman
"Definitely not to be confused with the elusive children's-book character, this Waldo is a hard-living, tough-guy cat who made his mark in 1960s underground comics." Booklist
"All of Deitch's work is bristling with fun, fun that sometimes flows in a current so thick it seems like terror. He is one of the best cartoonists who ever lived." Jim Woodring
"Of all the hippie-generation comic artists, Kim Deitch is probably the sickest and most paranoid-delusive. Caught on the cusp of the hippie and punk esthetics, Deitch has trod the path of utter individualism, and what a long strange trip it's been." Austin Chronicle
