Reviews

The End Is Nigh has garnered praise from comic industry figures including:
The phrase 'The End is Nigh' derives from a man who could often be seen walking up and down London's Oxford Street wearing a sandwich board, or carrying a placard on a pole, bearing the phrase. The main meaning was purely religious – he was warning of the 'impending' Christian vision of Apocalypse – but the phrase has since entered the popular consciousness as a slightly derogatory term for someone or something warning of impending doom.
