Dark Horse Books presents Holler, a coming-of-age graphic novel written and illustrated by Jeremy Massie (All My Ghosts, Amazing Age). Initially released in single-issue comics from It’s Alive! and Massie, Holler TPBwill collect all eight issues of the ode to grunge and the ‘90s. The book will also include a brand-new cover, an original issue cover gallery with bonus pinup pages, and a new four-page afterward comic.

Mark lives in a tiny town in the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia in the early 1990s. He doesn’t fit in and feels out of sync with his family and the mostly conservative crowd there. Lucky for him, he finds an escape—the grunge band he forms with his best friend, Jay! As the lead guitarist in Magnesium Mama, Mark and his bandmates make their time in their hometown bearable. Between gigs, there are a lot of ups and downs, and luckily, Mark can remember most of them.

“I’ve gotten to a certain time in my life where I’ve gotten introspective maybe even sentimental about the time and place I grew up,” said Massie. “Even if the times and place weren’t the greatest, I was dwelling on that period a lot. I was so hung up on it I started making comics about my band playing, teenage years. They’re the type of comics I’ve always wanted to make. I got a lot of stories out of my system with Holler and I hope the love and fun I had while making it shows. These characters are friends of mine and some of them aren’t around anymore. I hate I can’t share this book with them. Anyway, here are a bunch of stories about playing loud music with your best friends, figuring out how things work, comics about the unkempt, final generation of analog teenagers.”

Holler (280 pages, paperback) arrives in bookstores on September 24, 2024 and in comic shops on September 25, 2024. It is now available to pre-order atAmazon, Barnes & Noble, your local comic shop, and indie bookstore for $29.99.
