"Battle Royale meets The Golden Girls with
dashes of Agatha Christie and Logan's Run. I'm all the way
in!" - Kelly Sue DeConnick
"Golden Rage's not-so-farfetched dystopian
island of castaway old ladies will question your attitude toward the aging women
of this world. A very important subject of self-reflection indeed." - Elsa

"Battle Royale meets The Golden Girls withdashes of Agatha Christie and Logan's Run. I'm all the way in!" -Kelly Sue
DeConnick "Golden Rage's not-so-farfetched dystopian island of
castaway old ladies will [make you] question your attitude toward the aging
women of this world. A very important subject of self-reflection indeed." -Elsa
Charretier "This series is one that has quickly grabbed my interest." -ComicBook.com "As charming as it is disturbing." -Comic Book Resources "Lush color schemes reflect the gore and backdrops of each scene, with dialogue supplemented by first-person narrative and reflection from a starring character each issue. The work is as heartbreaking as it is entertaining in its commentary on feminist rage and getting older, and ideal for those who understand that cattiness isn't far from sincerity, and sometimes people just need to be stabbed." -Booklist "The creative team clearly had fun with every aspect of the package, from bloody island rituals to the details of knitting gang colors. This tongue-in-cheek action thriller with a sly social message reads like a labor of love." -Publishers Weekly
