Wonder Woman! Hunks! Great men and women of history! Step aside – Kate Beaton is coming for you.

The author of the smash hit Hark! A Vagrant returns with all-new sidesplitting comics that showcase her irreverent love of history, pop culture and literature. Collected from her wildly popular website, readers will guffaw over 'Strong Female Characters', the wicked yet chivalrous Black Prince, 'Straw Feminists in the Closet' and a disgruntled Heathcliff. Delight in what the internet has long known - Beaton's humour is as sharp and dangerous as a velocipedestrienne, so watch out!

Tremendous fun, eccentric and warm and funny.

Rachel Cooke, Observer
