Hark! A Vagrant #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection gathers the early years of Kate Beaton's acclaimed webcomic, offering a witty and historically playful series of single-panel and short-strip gags. Featuring her signature blend of literary, historical, and pop-culture references, the book showcases Beaton's sharp humor and distinctive cartooning style. Published by Drawn & Quarterly, it compiles strips originally posted online from the late 2000s, establishing the series' beloved tone of irreverent yet affectionate satire.
"Get Me Off This Freaking Moor" is a hilariously unhinged take on Macbeth from Kate Beaton, whose sharp wit and deadpan illustrations bring Shakespeare’s tragedy to life with absurd, modern flair. In this 2011 Drawn & Quarterly gem, mistaken messages, a notably masculine Lady Macbeth, and a head in a planter set the stage for a darkly comedic twist on the classic—penciled, inked, and lettered entirely by Beaton, with her distinctive cover capturing the chaos perfectly.

A parody of Macbeth in which messages are sent to Glam Castle by mistake, Lady Macbeth is rather manly and Macbeth's head winds up in a planter.
