One of the internet's favorite phrases to utter in regard to the rich comes to life in this intriguing comic book series, which slowly builds the tension towards revealing just what horrendous thing these rich people, who we immediately mistrust, are responsible for. Shadowy and perfectly ominously drawn and colored artwork brings this world to vivid life. Read Full Review
Eat the Rich #1 delivers a great start to this story. Finishing on a hook that is sure to grab readers, it only remains to be seen if Gailey and company can keep the momentum going from here. Read Full Review
As first issues go, I thoroughly enjoyed this. And I would recommend to any fans of mystery and horror. Sarah Gailey has written a story which can make the skin on the back of your neck stand up. The pacing of the book starts slow and just builds up to a chilling crescendo which leaves you fearing what will come in the next issue. Beautifully written with a superb supporting art team, this is one book you don't want to miss. Read Full Review
It's a fun first issue through and through, and I'm interested to see what we'll see on the first page of the second issue. Gailey, Bak, Titov, and Rae have a very cohesive project that hits all the right notes to keep my curiosity in this horror series piqued. Read Full Review
Eat The Rich #1 is a great first issue. This is horror done right. Gailey masterfully sets the tone of the book right off the bat, and it works great. Bak and Titovs art fits the script wonderfully. As far as first issues go, this one works very well. Read Full Review
In a similar style as Get Out, Ready or Not, and You're Next, this series from creators Sarah Gailey and Pius Bak does a solid job of setting the stakes and weaving an ominous foreshadowing, but does little to set itself apart from a number of other properties that have ventured down a similar road before it.

Nearly a carbon copy of a much better piece of art, Eat the Rich #1 only strips away any relevance it might have so that it might apply to anyone. Read Full Review
The best description I can give for Eat the Rich is that it’s Cruel Intentions meets Get Out. It’s a story about the ultra wealthy and their inner workings from the perspective of an outsider.
Our main character is Joey, a normal college girl whose boyfriend Astor comes from an incredibly wealthy family. Joey and Astor are going to spend the summer with Astor’s family at their beach house in Crestfall Bluffs. This will be her first introduction to his family and their world. Naturally, Joey is incredibly nervous about the meeting fearing that she won’t fit in and that Astor’s family will reject her.
From the initial introduction between Joey and Astor’s family you get a sense of uncomfortableness and a fe more
I thought this was better than expected. Very well written. I felt the anxiety of the main character. And even though it was spoiled for me it still had an interesting ending.
Interested to see where this ends up going
I only read this because of the title, and fortunately, the comic itself is pretty good. I'll keep up reading it. I hope the rest of the miniseries is a tad less predictable though.
If you've seen it once, you've seen them all. Person goes to visit their partner's rich family & discovers their secrets. I want to enjoy because it has some interesting ideas but i feel like I've read & watched this before.
This was fine but not what I was hoping for. I've already seen this movie.
It's weird. Although the premise was intriguing, the overall setup did not hold my attention. However, there are some interesting conversation. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.
