A review by hereisenough
Man-Eaters, Vol. 1 by Chelsea Cain

4.0

I might call this a political scifi comic. When at puberty, many girls with a certain infection turn into big cats, hungry for male blood. Precautions are taken to prevent this mutation, strengthening the patriarchy by segregating boys and girls, including their drinking water. I think the comic is sooo well done, except the fourth issue being a faux magazine of the world. I have to wonder tho- why not just get rid of cats instead of doing this to girls? I suppose this is just part of the satirical point. But still.
I look forward to reading more, and I'm hoping exploration of gender is included in the future... how does this impact transitioning people?
