Title: Man-Eaters Vol. 1

Author: Chelsea Cain, Kate Niemczyk, Lia Miternique

Publisher: Image 2019

Genre: Comics

Pages: 128

Rating: 5/5 stars

Reading Challenges:

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

A friend lent me these two trades because he thought I would like them. And boy did I! I love this feminist tale of female growth and empowerment. The storyline is thoroughly original and the characters are great fun. I sped through this volume and then had to go back and reread my favorite advertisements and extras. I can’t wait to see what’s next.

Title: Man-Eaters Vol. 2

Author: Chelsea Cain, Kate Niemczyk, Lia Miternique

Publisher: Image 2019

Genre: Comics

Pages: 128

Rating: 5/5 stars

Reading Challenges:

Twelve-year-old, Maude, has a case of puberty-induced pantherism, a missing friend, a detective dad who thinks she may be a killer, a mom with a big secret, a unicorn hiding in her bedroom, and a plan to overthrow the patriarchy.

From the creative team that brought you the groundbreaking and Eisner-nominated series Mockingbird, this trade paperback collects the second arc of the unconventional coming-of-age tale―including the mental hygiene guide for girls, “WHAT’S HAPPENING TO ME AND HOW CAN IT BE STOPPED?” Collects MAN-EATERS #5-8

Another great volume. I loved how the story developed in these issues. The mystery has deepened and Maude has became such a great main character. Love it!
