"Hague presents here a riveting project, that opens up a wonderful path and many loaded questions"

"Comics and the Senses is not just a highly original work within Cultural Studies, it also develops a framework of wide significance for all of the Humanities."

"Comics and the Senses succeeds in providing "a starting point, a catalogue, of the multisensory elements of comics," and it details several exciting ways in which comics have moved into 21st-century electronic media... [it] is an admirable resource for accessing scholarly theories about comics and for considering directions that future scholarship could take in relation to a rapidly expanding comics industry." - Brian Bates , ImageText

"Clearly written, with careful explanations and background information...a thought-provoking read, especially in its attempt to underscore theperformativity of comics reading experiences and the role of comics formats in moulding those experiences." - Maaheen Ahmed, Université Catholique de Louvain, in European Comic Arts
