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.

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.

"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
