Vault Comics announced it is launching a music graphic novel line featuring Metallica, Def Leppard, and more. The new imprint is called Headshell.
Metallica co-founder Lars Ulrich said in press release, “The team at Vault are pushing boundaries and are bold storytellers. We are excited to partner with them.”
Headshell will Iaunch with Dying Inside from Pete Wentz, Hannah Klein, and Lisa Sterle. Fall Out Boy co-founder Pete Wentz said, “Creating a new graphic novel with Vault and one of my favorite writers, Hannah Klein, has been an insane experience–in the best possible way. Between her perspective, honesty, and super dark sense of humor and Vault’s creative support throughout the entire process, I’m excited to share it with the world soon.” Klein is best known for her work on the short form Snapchat series, Everything Is Fine. Artist Lisa Sterle has worked with Vault on Submerged and Witchblood.
I’m sure Z2 Comics isn’t upset about this announcement. at. all.
