- LA Examiner Reviews both Incarnate 1 and 2
“Nick's first
issue is a must-read-twice comic if you're a lover of cryptic characters,
violence similar to the Kick Ass series that makes you cringe, with a slight
twist of humor.”

“Incarnate #2 is filled with violence,
flirtatious encounters and a touch of manga-styled sexuality. Of the first and
second releases of Incarnate, Issue 2 is by far my favorite.”

- Ain’t It Cool News Reviews Incarnate #2
"Issue two of this series proves that Nick Simmons
is not only an up and coming artist, he’s also got a pretty hefty bag full of
interesting and creative ideas. The Revenant monsters in this story are part
vampire, but much, much more. Mot, our lead monster, is captured and forced to
work for a secret organization, leashed by a Tingler like object made of
Revenant bone (the only thing apparently that can hurt a Revenant). Not sure if
I completely understand the motivations of these creatures just yet, but
Simmons is keeping how everything fits together pretty close to his vest.
Still, he pieces together some great scenes of bloody action and his choice of
panel size and shape are incredibly impressive. The vivid and angular panels
amplify the intensity of the scenes and Simmons’ manga-influenced art dances
around these panels with tumbling grace. There’s a lot of fun to be had in this
book. Though some of the pages feel exposition heavy, the story, like most of
Radical’s books, is epic in scope and well worth checking out."

- Project Fanboy gives Incarnate #2 4 out of 5 stars
“I’d strongly advise anyone to give this comic a go. At
first you may think it’s just a gimmick, being written by someone of celebrity.
But I’ll tell you right now that it’s not another case of Tyrese Gibson’s Mayhem. You’re getting a ton of quality
content for such little price. It’s definitely worth a read.”

- Bleeding Cool reviews Incarnate #2
Former CBR columnist Rich Johnston gives a real introspective review of the latest issue of Incarnate #2 from Nick Simmons.
"I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. There’s something so refreshing about acomic book by a celebrity that not only does he write, but he draws as well. And, indeed, draws
well."
"...It’s certainly melodrama but it has a deeper political dimension which holds my interest in a way that, let’s face it, it didn’t need actually need to, just to get published. Bravo."

- The Comic Book Bin gives Incarnate #2 an A-
“There is no fall off from the first
issue, and Incarnate remains an engaging comic book with a cast of characters, plot, and backstory that become
more captivating with just about every page. Simmons’ live wire drawing
style and his dynamic compositions make for the kind of graphic storytelling
that will have readers wanting to get into the world of Incarnate.”

- The Nilskidoo blog reviews Incarnate #2
“This is a complete package,
clearly an early chapter in a much greater saga, and I look forward to seeing
what this dark world that Simmons is forging will unveil. There is a great new
voice at work here, and I applaud its efforts.”
