"[Lisa Voldeng] brings a fresh, provocative voice to major media and online issues."
-Walt Mossberg, Personal Technology Guru, The Wall Street Journal

"Lisa Voldeng gets it. She really does. I'd follow her anywhere."
-Stefan Simchowitz, Producer, Requiem for a Dream, The House of Yes

"Once again, the mad geniuses at sugarlab have decided to challenge our perceptions of how serial comics should be put together and presented... The storytelling is simple and elegant, and told with a quiet confidence that's almost liberating... The covers are minimalist masterpieces... These people are so bad-ass they have their own soundtrack. Now, that's what I'm talking about!"
-Jeff Chon, Savant Magazine

"You are the twinkle in the inward looking eye, the tip on the horn of the unicorn and the double knot in the red converse sneakers of sanity... We dedicate this dusk to the überbabe, and the sunrise to sugarlab."

selected Überbabe press reviews

"Femme fatale, crimefighter, social iconoclast..."
-Maryam Siddiqi, National Post

"überbabe... is everywhere at once, with swaying [white] hair, an hourglass figure and an almost ethereal take on the destruction of mankind... political parody, revisionist history, vaguely gay themes, breasts and disembowelment all go by in a blur... the edgy, indie mood is there in spades."
-Guy Dixon, Globe and Mail

"Not a lot of people know this, but back somewhere 'round the summer of '75, Joseph Campbell and Paul Kantner had a love child. Yes they did. And she grew to be the Uberbabe, and damn, she was good. She knew there were myths to project, souls to protect, and mistakes to correct. Not to mention asses to shake. I happened upon her story and felt its resonances immediately. Finding something this engaging to see and hear and read, something this socially and spiritually progressive, can make a man do crazy things: like re-read Rumi's poems, or sunbathe naked on a rooftop, or go to the library to arm oneself for a culture war, or write liner notes to someone else's album."
-Joe McCombs, Freelance Journalist, The Village Voice, StarPolish

"This [volume] is an incredible endeavor. An incredible creation. Lisa Voldeng's words flow majestically throughout the book... uberbabe is a bit of Jimi Hendrix meets Alice in Wonderland meets War and Peace. [It's] fantasy and realism mixed in to take the audience on the ride of their lives! Get ready to hold on!"
-Paul Dale Roberts, Publisher, Jazma Online

"a printed Fantasia...[that takes] post-modern storytelling to the next level...the erotic impressionism leaps off of every page, at once biting and seducing."
-David Weekly, Entrepreneur/Hacker

"One of the most innovative comics I've seen in a long time... [The] art is flat-out gorgeous, with its eye-catching minimalism and stark graphic beauty... I guess this is what the cool kids do with their free time. Three cheers for ultra-keen pop sensibility."
-Jeff Chon, Savant Magazine

"As the GOP spin doctors once said about the antithesis of Uberbabe: 'Now, More Than Ever.' In true super hero fashion, she arrives when we need her most. Or to paraphrase those earlier Republicans, 'in your heart, you know she's right.'"
-Mark L. Williams, Danger Boy Scribe

"Coke doesn't make me emotional. überbabe makes me emotional."
-honorary überbabe

"Thank you for the opportunity to be part of the überbabe experience. I try to make time to tune in and experience the inner überbabe within [me] constantly."
-honorary überbabe

"[S]imple and elegant... The effort that has gone into putting this superior [book] together is well hidden behind the crisp simplicity of the presentation... [They] make it look easy to produce an intelligent graphic narrative. If only it were so. In a word: sophisticated."
-Darren Schroeder, Silver Bullet Comics

"[J]ust beauty."
-Jonathon Ellis, Pop Image

"A new icon for our times."
-Todd Babiuk, Edmonton Journal

"I am left quivering and speechless. Uberbabe has overcome me."
- Michael Musto, Columnist, The Villiage Voice
