Reviews / Votes
"Destined to be a modern classic." -PattersonHood, Drive-By Truckers "While this unique title will likely appeal to fans of Mockingbird and
Women World, it's also recommended to teens who like their story orders of smart
female empowerment to come with a side of satire." -YALSA's Great
Graphic Novels for Teens blog "An even more inspired feminist fable than Mockingbird."
-Entertainment Weekly "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
