Summary

Rogues! is a fantasy adventure comics series created by Spanish writer El Torres, following a band of rogues, thieves, and outsiders scraping a living in a world of swords and sorcery: they are not heroes in the traditional sense of saving the world, but rather a bunch of types who get by on loopholes, cunning, and screwing each other over. The series is known for its antiheroic humor, dense banter, and parody of classic fantasy tropes, with a fast pace, lots of dialogue, and plots that veer between the absurd and the dangerous. Volume 4 continues the series' tone: the protagonists are dragged into new troubles and conflicts of interest, facing formidable opponents and situations, needing both to escape and to reckon their own gains and losses. This is Volume 4 of the series, with the story unfolding around the plot thread "the Great Purge of Glada"; please refer to the actual edition for specifics. Overall it suits comics readers who enjoy lighthearted fantasy adventure, ensemble teams, and dark humor.

Editor's review

《Rogues!》是那种一翻开就能感到“不正经”的奇幻漫画:主角们不是来拯救世界的,他们只想活着、顺手捞点好处,然后彼此拆台。El Torres 的对白节奏极快,笑点密集却不廉价,常常在插科打诨之间突然转入真正的危险,让读者笑着笑着就发现局势已经失控。第4卷延续系列一贯的群像写法,几个各怀鬼胎的角色互相算计又不得不合作,人物关系比打斗更好看。如果你看腻了光明正大的英雄叙事,想读一点带刺、带笑、带反转的奇幻冒险,这套书正好对味。本册为该系列第 4 册,建议按顺序阅读以获得完整的人物与情节脉络。

FAQ

《Rogues! 第4卷》是整套书还是单册?
这是系列中的第 4 册,不是全套合集。建议先确认自己读到第几册,避免情节衔接不上。
没有读过前几册能直接看第4卷吗?
可以尝试,但本系列人物关系与笑点大量依赖前作铺垫,直接读第4卷可能对部分情节和人物动机感到陌生,建议从第1卷开始。
这套书的风格是什么样的?
属于反英雄式的奇幻冒险漫画,以幽默对白、密集吐槽和对经典奇幻套路的戏仿为特色,主角是一群不太靠谱的边缘人。
