FEMINIST TEEN GRAPHIC NOVEL MAN-EATERS, VOL. 1 HITs STORES FOR INDIE BOOKSTORE DAY 2019

Eisner-nominated and New York Times bestselling thriller writer Chelsea Cain, artist Kate Niemczyk, colorist Rachelle Rosenberg, and letterer Joe Caramagna of the controversial and buzzed about comic Mockingbird team with Lia Miternique and Stella Greenvoss to launch a hot new feminist sci-fi series for teens this March with Man-Eaters, Vol. 1. In celebration of the new series, an additional, exclusive, signed edition will be available for Independent Bookstore Day on Saturday, April 27.

On the heels of Marvel’s unexpected cancellation of Cain’s The Vision series, support of Man-Eaters went viral across the social media sphere with signal blasts from mainstream media covering the Marvel slight and ironic timing with her new series, Man-Eaters. The hot new title can best be described as Kelly Sue DeConnick and Valentine DeLandro’s Bitch Planet meets Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale.

In Man-Eaters, readers are introduced to a world where a mutation in Toxoplasmosis causes menstruating women to turn into ferocious killer wildcats—easily provoked and extremely dangerous. As panic spreads and paranoia takes root, the fate of the world rides on the shoulders of one 12-year-old girl. Part Cat People, part Naomi Alderman’s The PowerMan-Eaters has an all pro-feline agenda.
