Continuing the rock celebration, graphic novel “Hysteria” follows Foz, frontwoman of indie band Darkside, as she inherits her father’s estate and discovers it comes with the guitar she used as a child. The guitar speaks to her, promising fame and success, and soon, the guitar lives up to its promises. But when Darkside’s equipment is stolen at a large music venue just before they’re set to take the stage with Def Leppard, Foz fights to get the guitar back. A fist-swinging rampage ensues, and the guitar’s true history is revealed.
Hysteria features never before heard music from Darkside, a collaboration with Phil Collen, telling the story of the world’s most dangerous guitar. More details on the release of the Darkside EP will be announced at a later date!!
Hysteria #0 is scheduled for release in October, so head over to your local comic book store now and pick up your copy.
