I'm already a fan of
Rat Queens artist Roc Upchurch from his work on
Vescell, so hopefully this book new book
Rat Queens is a testament to his super-speed or something and not that
Vescell is cancelled. Whatever the case, this fantasy-based badgirl comic looks dope!
Here's the sales pitch: A band of four women, a human, a dwarf, a hobbit and an elf, form an adventuring party to kill monsters and party with the rewards. |

Besides that fact that his name is freaking bomb, Roc Upchurch can draw the shit out of the ladies! He manages to make femme fatales that look smoking hot while still having functional outfits, and I totes respect that, seen? You should also know that the human/ sorceress Dee is going to be my second wife if I figure out how to project myself into this comic on some Grant Morrisson shit, so be advised.Anyways, Rat Queens #1 is supposed to drop in September, but this is an indy book, so... whatever. I'll let you know when I see that it's in stores.-samax.
