Matt Braly, creator of Disney's Amphibia, proclaims Kitty Quest is "an absolutely charming story that had me chuckling the whole way through. I couldn't put it down!"Woolfrik and Perigold are two down-on-their-luck kittens in need of some extra cash, so they've decided to become professional monster slayers. Except they don't know the first thing about it! So when a huge beast starts rampaging through town, they are put to the ultimate test. Fortunately, the duo accidentally awakens a ghost named Earl Mortimore, who is the last
not-so-living member of an ancient guild of warriors, and he's going to teach them everything he knows.
But the monster is just the beginning of their worries, because someone even more troublesome is pulling its strings. So even though they've never been in a battle--or even gone on a real quest before--it's up to these kittens to save the day and prove they've got what it takes to be heroes.
Dog Man meets The Lord of the Rings in this hilarious debut graphic novel that follows two young adventurers who become the newest members of Kitty Quest--a heroic guild charged with protecting the realm from the likes of rampaging monsters, overbearing ghosts, and bumbling wizards.
Woolfrik and Perigold are two down-on-their-luck kittens looking to make some extra money, so they've decided to become professional monster slayers. So what if their first gig is more pest removal than the heroics they envisioned, and all they get for their troubles is a worthless gem? They'll do better next time!
Well, when a huge dragon comes rampaging through the streets of Meowminster, Woolfrik and Perigold get their second chance. Only it turns out they are woefully unprepared. Luckily for them, that seemingly useless gem actually magically awakens the ghost of Earl Mortipaw, former member of the ancient guild of heroes known as Kitty Quest, who's going to whip its two newest (and only) recruits into shape.
Hot on the dragon's trail, the trio realizes it's strangely avoiding damaging property and hasn't actually eaten a single citizen. And with further investigation, they discover that an evil sorcerer named Dagzibad has kidnapped her eggs and is holding them ransom, forcing the dragon to do his bidding. Although they've never come face-to-face with a dragon, battled a powerful wizard, or even gone on a real quest before, it's up to Perigold and Woolfrik to save the day and prove they're the heroes they've always believed themselves to be.
