Rat Queens

Rat Queens, a new comic written by Peter Panzerfaust co-creator Kurtis J. Wiebe and drawn by Roc Upchurch, will be announced tomorrow during the Peter Panzerfaust panel at the Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo (C2E2).

Attendees of the (at 3:15 pm CST tomorrow in room W470b) will get an exclusive peek at a three-minute teaser for the Peter Panzerfaust animated comic. The teaser for the motion comic, which is produced by Adjacent Productions and Quality Transmedia, will not be shown elsewhere. Featuring the voice talents of Elijah Wood (Peter), Summer Glau (Wendy), Ron Perlman (Kapitan Haken), and Dante Basco (Alain), the motion comic fully animates the Image Comics/Shadowline comic book by Kurtis J. Wiebe and Tyler Jenkins. An official trailer will be released on May 14.

Those in attendance will also be the first to get a look at Wiebe's new series Rat Queens, to be published by Jim Valentino's Shadowline imprint at Image Comics, follows the exploits of four monster-hunting women whose love of partying is outweighed only by their love of exacting sweet, brutal revenge on their enemies. Wiebe describes it as "Tank Girl meets Bridesmaids by way of a Lord of the Rings fantasy world on crack."
