Punk'n Heads



This band plays together, lives together…and unfortunately two of them are sleeping together. Whatever, I’m sure it’s fine. Now put on your punk’n mask and let’s rock!

Hannah Lipsky isn’t sure what’s happening. She dreamed of becoming a fine art painter, but after breaking up with her girlfriend, she’s suddenly dropped out of art school, moved into a flophouse, and gotten roped into singing in a campy horror-punk band. With costumes. To make things even more complicated, she might be hooking up with her housemate/bandmate/high school crush, Jerry. Wherever this is leading, it’s going to be messy.

Critically acclaimed, Eisner-nominated creators Nicole Goux (Forest Hills Bootleg Society, Pet Peeves) and Dave Baker (Everyone Is Tulip, Mary Tyler MooreHawk) join forces for a raucous and revealing new graphic novel about making music, making mistakes, facing your past, and choosing your future.

Praise for Punk'n Heads

“Absolutely radiates the doomed, beautiful, hilarious energy of being in a band. Exquisitely executed portraits of messy, messy people.” —Kieron Gillen (The Wicked + the Divine, Once & Future)

“Baker and Goux have captured a pitch-perfect early 20s LA friend group: messy, queer, creative, broke, and carrying burdens beyond their years. Through breakups, backyard gigs, bad jobs, and birthdays, the crew stay true to their creative vision and their music. This book feels lived-in and real.” —Maia Kobabe (Gender Queer: A Memoir)

“Reading this book reminded me what it was like to fall in love with making art, finding community, and being in a new band. I love the way the art jumps off the page and perfectly conveys the exuberance and immediacy of making and playing music.” —Cecil Castellucci
