Dying Inside TPB (2024 Vault Comics) comic books 1980 or later

1st printing. Written by Hannah Klein and Pete Wentz. Art by Lisa Sterle and Sally Canurino. Cover by Lisa Sterle. From Hannah Klein (Everything's Fine), Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz, and Lisa Sterle (The Modern Witch Tarot) comes the graphic novel about a chronically depressed girl who's tired of fighting for her... death. DYING INSIDE is a musically immersive experience, featuring original lyrics and poetry from Pete Wentz, an integrated playlist, and never-before-heard music from Daisy Grenade. Today is Ash's big finale. And by finale, she means exiting the stage permanently. Ash is a sixteen-year-old girl with more angst than Ian Curtis and Elliott Smith combined (her two idols). She's apathetic and therefore believes death is the easiest route to relief. But nothing is more embarrassing than a lame death. Unfortunately, her meticulous plans are ruined when the beautiful knife she buys off a webstore turns out to be charmed with a protection spell. Now, Ash has to track down the witch who transformed her clocking out attempt into the worst gift imaginable: immortality. Turns out, the witch responsible is another sixteen-year-old-girl named (get this) Liv. The two vow to undo the charm together and fight for Ash's death...even as things get increasingly entangled with a strange new antidepressant called Somnia and her mom's gross boyfriend, Greg. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 224 pages, full color. Cover price $19.99.
