My Heroes Have Always Been Junkies TP
Thrillist's Best Comics & Graphic Novels of 2018
ED BRUBAKER and SEAN PHILLIPS-the bestselling creators of CRIMINAL, KILL OR BE KILLED, THE FADE OUT, and FATALE-present their first original graphic novel in paperback for the very first time!
Teenage Ellie has always romanticized drug addicts, those tragic artistic souls drawn to needles and pills, ever since the death of her junkie mother ten years ago. But when Ellie lands in an upscale rehab clinic where nothing is as it appears to be, she'll find another-more dangerous-romance, and discover how easily drugs and murder go hand-in-hand.
MY HEROES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN JUNKIES is a seductive coming-of-age story, a pop and drug culture-fueled tale of a young girl seeking darkness... and what she finds there.
"Readers of postmodern pulp will enjoy this intense story and unapologetically cunning character." -Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Provides plenty of truly twisted twists and wraps up with a pulpy punch of an ending that's satisfying-and heartbreaking... a fine addition to a staggering body of work." -Library Journal (starred review)
"Like most CRIMINAL stories, there's a darkness, along with twists that cut to the core. Phillips' art utilizes a limited color palette that makes you feel the ideas that run through each scene, each of the narrator's thoughts and memories." -LAist

Pre-Orders & Final Order Cutoff
Pre-ordering is the best way to guarantee the comics and collectibles you don't want to miss.
Comic books available during the open-order period are typically offered at 25% off cover price. Pre-orders must be placed before the applicable Final Order Cutoff (FOC) deadline to receive available pre-order pricing.
Once a comic book passes FOC, the sale is final and the order cannot be canceled. At that point, State of Comics has committed to purchasing inventory from our distributors based on customer orders.
Release dates, cover artwork, creative teams, product descriptions, variants and other information are supplied by publishers and distributors and may change without notice.
Orders containing multiple products will generally ship once all items in the order are available.
Publisher cancellations, distributor allocations, shortages and other circumstances outside our control can occasionally prevent us from fulfilling a pre-order. If this occurs, we will communicate any changes and issue applicable refunds. State of Comics
