April 8th — Seattle, WA — Heavy Metal Comics is proud to present a new series from
writer Jeremy Holt and artist Alex Diotto, creators of the critically-acclaimed series
SOUTHERN DOG.
“I’ve longed believed that music’s transportive property is the closest we’ll ever get to
experiencing time travel. This story explores an alternate history of my all-time favorite band Nirvana,” said Holt.
SKIP TO THE END follows Jonny Wells, bassist of the breakout punk band Samsara, whose life has fallen apart after his bandmate and best friend commits suicide. Twenty years later he struggles with heroin addiction, lost in the songs they created and desperate to relive the past, when he discovers a mysterious guitar capable of making the jump.
Diotto added, “When Jeremy pitched the concept to me, I was immediately hooked. I
even created a Spotify playlist with a lot of grunge music that helped take me back to
that time period.”
The first issue will hit comic book stores July 27th.
The A.V. Club has an exclusive preview over at their site. Check it out!
