Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "Aside from NSA surveillance, radiation-induced brain tumors, and texting while driving, Snapshot gives us another reason to be wary of cell phones. In a rippling crime drama where an ordinary man is exposed to the dank criminal underbelly of his city, Jack's life is turned inside out when he pockets a seemingly discarded cell phone and sifts through its pictures only to find evidence of a gruesome murder. This newfound discovery puts a hit man hot on his trail, and Jack's top priority changes from running a comic-book shop to staying alive. Snapshot brings together the creative team of Diggle and Jock, who previously worked together on Green Arrow: Year One (2009). Diggle's tight storytelling patiently delivers the right twist at the right time. Jock manages a remarkable depth of realism, given the stark black-and-white palette of the pages, which are heavy with smudgy shadows that look like they were colored in with a thick, black marker. Fans of Jeff Lemire's current work on Green Arrow will likely enjoy this gritty crime-conspiracy story.--Spanner, Ben Copyright 2014 Booklist"
