Tula Lotay and Helen Mullane have teamed for Groupies, a tale of sex, drugs, and rock and roll at Comixology Originals.
“I’ve always been fascinated by the lives of groupies,” said writer Helen Mullane in a press release. “The daring fashion, devil-may-care lifestyle, and the girls’ determination, getting their kicks despite most people’s censure and judgement. It’s a world of glamour and darkness, where some people have their wildest dreams come true, while others are chewed up and spat out. Our story is a blood-soaked and acid-drenched journey into the heart of darkness, where most people are out for what they can get. But just because the girls are living in a world that sees them as disposable, doesn’t make them any less extraordinary.”
On a wild night out at the Fox Club, the coolest, hottest, and wildest girls on (or off) the Sunset Strip meet the edgiest up-and-coming band in town, and sparks fly. The Moon Show’s stardom is about to rise as they celebrate getting signed to the legendary Asmodeus Records. The girls and the band share a magical night, a night that nobody wants to end.
As the story unfolds, the excited groupies head on tour with the band – living the dream – but their tuned-in and dropped-out idyll is about to unravel. Something dark is pulling the strings, and the girls are about to discover the true cost of rock and roll.
Groupies is a five-issue mini-series that arrives on October 22, 2024.
