Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose has launched a new cyberpunk graphic novel, Appetite For Destruction. Find all the details below.
The singer has teamed up with Sumerian Comics for the forthcoming project, which shares its name with GnR’s 1987 classic debut album.
Rose co-wrote the story alongside Sumerian co-founder Nathan Yocum, who explained: “Axl Rose: Appetite for Destruction is a raw, neon-noir fever dream, part rock anthem, part cyberpunk prophecy.
“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.”
A synopsis reads: “Set in a neon-drenched Paradise City where humans and robots are meant to co-exist, Appetite for Destruction follows Axl Rose, a half-human, half-robot who lives on the fringes, and finds solace in the music of a back-alley lounge singer.
“When she vanishes under mysterious circumstances, Axl’s search for answers drags him into a deadly conspiracy, one that could decide the fate of humanity itself.”
