FEEDBACK TO BULLET GAL.
“A new millennium pastiche of every noir motif there is but done as a stylized, digitized, mind-bending visual rhapsody that’ll leave you feeling like you’ve been slapped in the face by a French femme fatale.” Graphic Policy
“Unique, unconventional and brilliant, having successfully turned the femme fatale trope around and created a kick-ass female character.” Starburst Magazine
"A hard-as-nails heroine, and an assortment of strange cohorts... they’re the latest to take the stage in a land Bergen calls Heropa – a hardboiled cityscape filled with souls of noir." Crime Fiction Lover
“A warped masterpiece.” The Cult Den
“Bullet Gal is an homage and a step forward for conventions we know and love, hitting every target it fiercely puts in its crosshairs.” Cultured Vultures

“Beyond a meta-criticism of art and the creative process, Bergen has a gift for recreating the dialogue of the great writers, like Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett, and passing it on to a femme-fatale.” Flickering Myth
“Surviving on nothing but her wits, pistols, and razor-sharp dialogue.” Bleeding Cool
