Rat Queens is about a group of girls who are loudmouthed, booze-guzzling, and violent. What's not to like about them? The best way to describe this comic is that it's a mix of Lord of the Rings and the movie Bridesmaids. It's funny, crude, and gruesome but also kind of heartfelt sometimes. It's a great comic that has great diversity. Recommended By Hannah B., Powells.com
The titular Rat Queens don't play by the rules, and this single defining similarity forges the friendships between this rad group of women. While delivering diverse and fully developed characters of every kind, their stories manage to bring to life the most fun and wacky impulses of Dungeons and Dragons adventuring. The Rat Queens are a blast no matter what they're doing — whether that's killing monsters, starting brawls, antagonizing authority, or just partying 'till the sun comes up.
