Task 2: Read a feminist comic

[Book Riot]

Use this board to discuss task #2 of the Panels Read Harder challenge: read a feminist comic.

[Shirley]

Thanks for setting this up guys :)
For this task I just read Bitch Planet #1
Loved it straight away, must get to the rest of them. I've heard that Rat Queens, Vol. 1: Sass & Sorcery could be used that I'm using on the main challenge of non superhero comic when it gets to me from the library could be used too. Anyone else?

[Jo]

Loved Bitch Planet too, really want a non-compliant tattoo now! The next volume isn't out for awhile but I am also waiting excitedly for it :)

Rat Queens is wonderful, it's one of my favourites for sure.

[Shirley]

Thanks for that jo, I've been excited to read it since I heard of it.
This is my year of reading the comics I've heard are awesome but haven't got around to.

Me too! Rat Queens is one of my favorites too. I also think [book:Lumberjanes, Vol. 1: Beware the Kitten Holy would be a great one - and for the task about teen protagonists.

[Andrea]

Definitely filled this requirement I think with the new Ms. Marvel, Squirrel Girl, and Lady Killer this year. Picked up Bitch Planet at The Strand but haven't read it yet.

[Shirley]

I read most of lumberjanes last year and adored it! Lady killer I haven't heard of? But squirrel girl is high on my tbr list.

Ooo thanks for the recs! I think I'm going to go with Bitch Planet #1!

[Shirley]

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did :)

[Jo]

I'm a little fuzzy on what we're counting as feminist for this task, but it FEELS as though these should work, if anyone's still looking for recs (in addition to the awesome ones above - seriously everyone read Lumberjanes and Rat Queens and Ms Marvel and Bitch Planet):

Copperhead, Vol 1

Giant Days, Vol. 1

She-Hulk, Vol. 1: Law and Disorder

Finished Bitch Planet, Vol 1: Extraordinary Machine and I love love loved it!

[Shirley]

I'm so glad you loved it! I just read the trade volume yesterday and am so impatient for the next lot! I also read rat queens and omg it's so much fun! My reading lists to keep up to date and catch up with are too long now and you guys aren't helping at all in these threads ;p

Ugh yes!!! I went looking for a second volume just to see that there isn't one yet and I was like noooooooo! I need to read Rat Queens for sure!

I read Wonder Woman: Earth One, Volume One by Grant Morrison and Yanick Paquette. It's pretty good. Like a lot of people I'd rather see women write this character but I appreciate that Morrison read up on feminist theory for his "feminist" take on the character. I wrote a review here.
