Axl Rose Announces ‘Appetite For Destruction’ Graphic Novel

Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose has partnered with Sumerian Comics to release a new cyberpunk graphic novel series titled, Axl Rose: Appetite for Destruction. The story is set in a neon-lit Paradise City where a half-human, half-robot version of Rose uncovers a deadly conspiracy after a lounge singer mysteriously disappears. Co-created with Sumerian Comics co-founder Nathan Yocum, the series features artwork by Frank Mazzoli, colors by Antonio Antro, and lettering by Micah Myers. Yocum describes the book as “a raw, neon-noir fever dream, part rock anthem, part cyberpunk prophecy,” while adding that “Axl and I built a world where rebellion isn’t just attitude, it’s survival. It’s Axl like you’ve never seen him before, on the front lines of a battle for humanity’s future.” Pre-orders are available now, ranging from a $39.99 hardcover to a $299.99 signed super deluxe edition. Meanwhile, Guns N’ Roses embark on their Latin American tour starting on October 1 in San Jose, Costa Rica. (Consequence of Sound)
