Book Riot’s Best Comics of 2018 “It's a horror comedy about a girl who thinks she's a monster and it's brilliant.” — Kelly Sue DeConnick, Bitch Planet Adolescent girls can be real monsters. Maude is twelve, about the age some girls turn into flesh-eating wild cats. As her detective dad investigates a series of strange mauling attacks, Maude worries she may be the killer. Collects #1-4 Includes the informative survival handbook, "Cat Fight! A Boys' Guide to Dangerous Cats." Plus never-before-published extra content. “Cain and Niemczyk are remarkably inventive here, telling the story through traditional narrative comics and graphs and photorealistic effects and other wild experiments in visual narrative...Cain seems to inherently understand what it is that makes comics so great.” — The Seattle Review of Books “Rachelle Rosenberg's colors help tie everything together, painting even the darker moments of the issue with eye-popping colors. Joe Caramagna's feels like the icing on the cake, going from clever and childlike whimsy to genuine terror with ease. As a whole, the visual aesthetic of Man-Eaters nails the nuance of being a teenage girl-facing the horrors of the world, but attempting to hang on to a sense of optimism in the process.” - Comicbook.com “Cain has taken on the best of them and come out swinging because she's just that damn good.” - Geek.com “ Man-Eaters has a sharp sense of humor that fuels the book's momentum and makes it an especially fun read.” - The Onion's AV Club “Cain and Niemczyk are remarkably inventive here, telling the story through traditional narrative comics and graphs and photorealistic effects and other wild experiments in visual narrative...Cain seems to inherently understand what it is that makes comics so great.” - The Seattle Review of Books "I am so cuckoo for this book. It's so exciting, vital, funny, weird." - Ben Blacker , Thrilling Adventure Hour, Nerdist Writers Panel, Supernatural, Hex Wives SHELF-AWARENESS -- Man-Eaters introduces us to a world much like our own, in which teenage girls await their first menstruation with some anxiety and trepidation--except that in this world, they could turn into man-eating monsters when their periods come. This title has crossover potential for young adult interest and readership. Recommended for fans of The Handmaid's Tale , Bitch Planet and Buffy the Vampire Slayer . “A sharp sense of humor that fuels the book’s momentum and makes it an especially fun read.” ― The Onion’s AV Club "I am so cuckoo for this book. It's so exciting, vital, funny, weird." ? Ben Blacker, Thrilling Adventure Hour, Nerdist Writers Panel, Supernatural, HexWives “Hauntingly vivid...delivers a terrifying cautionary vision that raises the bar on what comic books can really accomplish.” ― Villain Media “Cain has taken on the best of them and come out swinging because she’s just that damn good.” ― Geek.com “Rachelle Rosenberg's colors help tie everything together, painting even the darker moments of the issue with eye-popping colors. Joe Caramagna's feels like the icing on the cake, going from clever and childlike whimsy to genuine terror with ease. As a whole, the visual aesthetic of Man-Eaters nails the nuance of being a teenage girl―facing the horrors of the world, but attempting to hang on to a sense of optimism in the process.” ― Comicbook.com
