Green Day is releasing their own “handbook for the rebellious everywoman”

Green Day are releasing a new graphic novel, described as a “handbook for the rebellious everywoman who refuses to capitulate.”

Based on the punk rocker’s 2009 track ‘Last of the American Girls’ from their album 21st Century Breakdown, which details the life of a motorbike-riding punk called Gloria.

For the book’s full-colour illustrations, the band has partnered with cartoonist Frank Caruso, who has previously worked with the likes of Wilco and Bruce Springsteen.

The product description for The Last of The American Girl pitches the book as a celebration of “true rebel girls—girls who push back, girls who use their voice, girls who say no.” 

Last of the American Girls will be available to purchase from October 29th – you can pre-order it here.
