Kirkus Reviews"The artistic rendering of rape and slaughter is as powerful as it is horrific, and the narrative hits hardest on an individual, human level in the chapter about a young girl, kidnapped by the LRA and forced into "marriage," and the ongoing trauma after she was rescued at age 13." Booklist "Axe...sketches Kony and his band, and describes the recently more organized-thanks to U.S. technical aid pushed by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton-hunt for Kony, as well as the somewhat unstable state of that effort in 2012. Hamilton's assured and detailed black-and white-brushwork art impressively maintains a serious, even dark atmosphere throughout." Pop Matters"Axe's telling, in the introductory essay as well as in the comics portion, is uncompromising, and Army of God calls for a commitment on behalf of the reader... Army of God's silhouettes and shadowing... keep the blunt nightmare in focus while offering Hamilton an opportunity to exercise tactful restraint in the account's more disturbing depictions."
