Raves and Reviews
Nostalgia is like an effortless-sounding song in a haunted key, a meticulously crafted meditation on creative passion and loneliness.
– Jake Shears, singer/songwriter, co-founder of Scissor Sisters, author of Boys Keep Swinging
Scott's storytelling is as bold and unforgettable as Danijel's stunning artwork. Together, they create a world that lingers in your mind long after the final page.
– Stephanie Phillips (Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, Spider-Gwen, Phoenix)
While speaking clearly to the present moment, Nostalgia is a potent mix of Blade Runner and John Constantine's early Hellblazer adventures. . . . Grimy, lived-in speculative fiction meets personally insightful observations about music and art, conveying an outrage at modern injustices that saturates the setting, but doesn't get in the way of a deeply personal journey and perspective for its title character. Žeželj's art and Loughridge's colors are exemplary, achieving the same absorbing style as Craig Mancini's in-world performances.

Writer Scott Hoffman's work in this particular space is fantastic, as so much is conveyed in relatively minimal dialogue between Nostalgia (Craig) and Nathan. It's an also a credit to artist Daniel Zezelj, colorist Lee Loughridge, and letterer Steve Wands, who are able to further immerse you by making each location feel like its own completely distinct world.

Hoffman, Žeželj and the team bring a powerful vision of a lost soul trying to find himself through solid writing and fantastic imagery. This is a book you don’t want to pass up checking out.
– ODPH Podcast review
The resulting story isn’t just about exploring Mancini/Nostalgia but a bleak world not unlike our own and even the very ideas of memory and interpersonal connection that accompany these bleak techno-noirs. Like many of Hoffman’s own tunes, it’s a vibrant, deeply personal exploration of the human condition.
– AIPT Comics
In our current culture and some people’s obsession with a past that’s somehow pristine, unimpeachable and better than today, it’s a great time to read and delve into Nostalgia.
