About the Book

From the Eisner award-winning comics creators who brought you Captain Marvel, Bitch Planet, and Wonder Woman: Historia comes this genre-busting, coming-of-age, apocalyptic odyssey about a group of metal kids who face a medley of bizarre foes and encounters in Portland, Oregon during a worldwide pandemic. From the Eisner award-winning comics creators who brought you Captain Marvel, Bitch Planet, and Wonder Woman: Historia comes this genre-busting, coming-of-age, apocalyptic odyssey about a group of metal kids who face a medley of bizarre foes and encounters in Portland, Oregon during a worldwide pandemic. Riley is a teen that sketches out his heavy metal future with a ballpoint pen between monster movies and band practice. But musical stardom needs to compete with high school, the temper of a former Riot Grrrl mother, the morbid obsessions of a goth sister, and the eccentricities of bandmates that threaten to drive him and everyone around him insane. The balance gets harder after a ritual during a party in Portland's Forest Park causes him to wake up one day to discover that the creatures, witchcraft, and metal world he's obsessed with may be a bit closer to home than he preferred. Collects FML #1-#8 and includes bonus concept material.

About the Author :
Kelly Sue DeConnick's work spans stage, comics, film and television. She first came to prominence as a comics writer, where she is best known for reinventing the Carol Danvers as "Captain Marvel" at Marvel and for the Black Label standard-setting Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons at DC. Her indie comics B**** Planet and Pretty Deadly (both from Image Comics) have ranked as NYTimes best-sellers and been honored with Eisners, British Fantasy Awards and Hugo nominations. Ms. DeConnick's screen work includes stints on Captain Marvel and 2023's forthcoming The Marvels with Marvel Studios. In addition to having consulted on features for Skydance and ARRAY, she has developed television for NBCUniversal, Legendary Entertainment and HBOMax. Her most recent stage work, AWAKENING, opened at the Wynn Resort Las Vegas in November 2022. Mission-driven, Ms. DeConnick is also a founding partner at Good Trouble Productions, where she has helped to produce non-fiction and educational comics including the "Hidden Voices" and "Recognized" series for NY Public Schools and Congressman John Lewis' Run, in partnership with Abrams Comics. In 2015, Ms. DeConnick founded the VisibleWomen Project, whose mission is to help women and other marginalized genders find paid work in comics and its related industries. The project continues to this day and recently expanded in partnership with Dani Hedlund of Brink Literacy. Ms. DeConnick lives in Portland, OR with her husband, writer Matt Fraction, and their two children. He is a cartoonist graduated in illustration from the School of Art of Zaragoza in 1996. That same year he starts publishing comics in the fanzine "451 " where he meets other authors from Zaragoza with whom he will share his career since then. He became a professional with "Espiral" (1998) in the Brut collection of the publishing house La Copula. From the year 2000 he starts working for the big American publishers, first in Marvel and then in DC Comics where he will be consecrated with titles such as "Fallen Angel" (2002), co-created with Peter David and, above all, "Catwoman" (2004), which he draws uninterruptedly for no less than 30 issues, breaking several records. In 2008 he returned to Marvel with a closer collaboration; in "Avengers: The Reunion" (2008), he brought the love of the main superheroes to Zaragoza, and continued in the publishing house drawing for some of its flagship series: X-Men, Spider-Man or Guardians of the Galaxy. His most mediatic contribution to the Marvel mythology has been his work in "Captain Marvel" (2014) together with the scriptwriter Kelly Sue de Connick, work that inspired the 2019 movie based on that same character. It is with "BlackHand & IronHead" (2017) when he returns to writing his own creations. This graphic novel was published in installments in Panel Syndicate, in digital format, and later published by Panini Italia (2018), Astiberri (2019) in Spain, Dargaud (2019) in France and Image (2020) in the United States. ​ David L pez has worked for the best publishers in the world and has drawn their most important characters, receiving nominations for the main national and American industry awards. Currently, in addition to drawing covers for the majors, he is publishing the second part of "BlackHand & IronHead" and hosts regularly in the comic channel "Streaming de dibujantes".

Review :
"It's a witty, personal, and heart-wrenching coming of age tale with a Portland punk rock twist...In a week full of big name superhero books that will no doubt hog the comics media headlines (including ours!), this very personal, very charming book is the one I'll be thinking about the longest."—Games Radar

"This book is simply stunning, whether it’s tackling the real world, the art of Riley’s notebook, or the various witchy stories being spun throughout, every ounce of this book looks exceptional, and the colors and lettering make it feel as if it were alive."—Comicbook.com
