"Fast, imaginative adventures that turn on a dime."

Kirkus Reviews

"YAHGZ! Cray-Z good fun from the mind and pen of Art Baltazar! Loved this action packed book filled with great adventure and Green Gorillas!“

– Dan DiDio, Publisher, Frank Miller Presents

“Art Baltazar is the artist/writer who emerged from comic books and graphic novels to explode the world of kids and family publishing. His work crackles with kinetic energy that dazzles his young audience. Magically, his super-contemporary style of art evokes the best work of legends like Harvey Kurtzman, Robert Crumb and Jack Davis in his MAD Magazine days. His latest book, “YAHGZ The Craynobi Tales,” is quite simply a gift to kids everywhere.”

– Michael Uslan, The Originator and Executive Producer of the Batman movie franchise

"There is never a dull moment in YAHGZ! Famous cartoonist Art Baltazar has packed this book with charismatic colorful characters, magical worlds, and the silliest of names that'll have you laughing as you pronounce them (YAHGEEZ)! This is the CRAYziest Baltazar book you'll ever read and one of the best all-ages adventures you'll ever take!"

– Scoot McMahon, Agents of S.L.A
