Rat Queens, Volume 1 (Deluxe)
Rat Queens, Volume 1 (Deluxe) | Kurtis J Wiebe
8 posts | 21 read | 19 to read
Who are the Rat Queens? A pack of booze-guzzling, death-dealing battle maidens-for-hire, and they're in the business of killing all god's creatures for profit. It's also a darkly comedic sass-and-sorcery series starring Hannah the Rockabilly Elven Mage, Violet the Hipster Dwarven Fighter, Dee the Atheist Human Cleric and Betty the Hippy Smidgen Thief. This modern spin on an old school genre is a violent monster-killing epic that is like Buffy meets Tank Girl in a "Lord of the Rings" world on crack! This deluxe hardcover edition combines the first two volumes of the "New York Times" bestselling series. It includes the never-before reprinted RAT QUEENS SPECIAL: BRAGA #1, and plenty of extras all in an over-sized hardcover with a SILVER-FOIL stamped cover!

Rat Queens is easily one of the best and funniest comics that I have read in years! The description on Hoopla said that its like Buffy meets Tank Girl in a Lord of the Rings world on crack. It is a bloody, hilarious adventure with some really great characters. Hanna, Dee, and Violet are great, but Betty just might be my new favorite character in anything ever!

daena I really need to bump this one up already and give it a go. 7y
tonyahoswalt I really enjoyed the first 3 (I think) volumes. But the newest one didn't seem as good, I didn't even finish it. 7y
WarpedSweetness That sounds awesome! I loved Tank Girl back in high school! 7y
GrilledCheeseSamurai Rat Queens cracks me up for sure! Great stuff! 7y

Today's #bookmail. Got the fancy hardcover deluxe Rat Queens. Because having the issues on my Kindle was just not enough. I can't wait for the soft reboot in March. 🐁👸⚔️🔮

CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian Also can't wait for the reboot!! Kurtis Sieve has posted some of the art on Twitter and it looks great. 8y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa Beautiful!! 8y
Dorianna @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian Have you seen the cover of issue 2? I'm possibly irrationally excited about it. 8y

I know I'm late to the game, but finally got around to reading this. I really don't know what took me so long. Loved it! I love every single one of these badass women. On to volume three! #sassandsorcery

#AugustPhotoChallenge's theme for Day 4 is #BookishSquads. My bookish squad would easily be the Rat Queens. They go on quests, fight monsters, don't take nonsense from the patriarchy, and they're SASSY. I may as well already be Hannah, so it would be a perfect fit. 👊🏼⚔💀🔮✨ #WNDB #WeNeedDiverseBooks

Every year, there are books I don't review in my usual long-format style, so in the interest of completeness I do these "grab bag"-style blog entries so I can talk about them :). The mid-year entry (which includes Rat Queens) can be found here: http://wp.me/p21txV-k2
