"Wow, Inferno City Firehouse just took a lot out of me!"
"...I had a visceral reaction, a sadness that was literally like a physical punch in the gut, when...(spoiler omitted). I was in the character for a split second and felt a range of negative emotions: sadness, regret, guilt, shame, pain. It's very well written, and as tragic as it is, I really enjoyed the ride."
Thanks, Darron Burke

"I read Inferno City Firehouse yesterday! I was expecting it to be good, but it caught me off guard how emotional the intertwined stories are and how quickly I became attached to the firefighters. The artwork tells a story all on its own, and the dialogue is so real and full of emotional impact. I am highly impressed! Bravo Brian, I hope you revisit the Detroit Fire Department and share more of their amazing stories!"

"A Great Graphic Novel!"
"I am a full-time firefighter in the City of Detroit and I really enjoyed this read. The author did a very good job of doing his research on how things are done in the fire department and on the fire grounds here. Overall a great book that I recommend to anyone that is in the fire service or anyone who likes graphic novels. The art work is well done. I will read this book multiple times."

"I listened to the song with the comic and it really brought something to the story. I would describe it as a mystical feeling of being in a new world. Thanks for sending it over I really enjoyed it. I look forward to your future works of art and inspiration. The volume and cosmic tone gave the read a little something extra. Thank you again and let me know when your other work is done so I can buy a copy"

"The art in this comic astonishes me. It's so vibrant! I like that within the Sci-Fi storyline, there are so many elements of human philosophy. It makes for a really satisfying reading experience."

"In the world of visual storytelling, we work with many talented artists, but Brian Lau is something else entirely—an alchemist of image and idea, transmuting raw elements into something far greater than their sum. His work is not just seen; it is felt—a resonance that hums beyond the frame, beyond the panels, beyond even the pages themselves.
There is a weight to Brian’s artistry, an undercurrent of thought and intention that reveals itself in layers, unfolding with each revisit. You can sense the sheer velocity of ideas coursing through him as he shapes narratives that challenge, inspire, and haunt long after the final scene fades. His work is immersive not just in its visual dynamism but in its depth—stories that reach beyond the ink and into the ineffable.
One in a million barely begins to cover it. Brian is a rare creative force, a mind untethered, building entire worlds where art, music, and storytelling intertwine in ways that defy expectation. To work with him is to witness the act of creation in its purest, most electrified form."
