"While this unique title will likely appeal to fans of Mockingbird and Women World, it's also recommended to teens who like their story orders of smart female empowerment to come with a side of satire." —YALSA's Great Graphic Novels for Teens blog
“Hauntingly vivid...delivers a terrifying cautionary vision that raises the bar on what comic books can really accomplish.” —Villain Media
“Cain has taken on the best of them and come out swinging because she’s just that damn good.” —Geek.com
“Rachelle Rosenberg's colors help tie everything together, painting even the darker moments of the issue with eye-popping colors. Joe Caramagna's feels like the icing on the cake, going from clever and childlike whimsy to genuine terror with ease. As a whole, the visual aesthetic of Man-Eaters nails the nuance of being a teenage girl—facing the horrors of the world, but attempting to hang on to a sense of optimism in the process.” —Comicbook.com
“An even more inspired feminist fable than Mockingbird.” —Entertainment Weekly
“Simply by envisioning teen girls as ferocious beasts, Cain finds a hundred ways to mock our culture's fear of powerful women.” —NPR
