How do you prevent history from repeating itself, and is it possible to protect the one you love from themselves? When the Eisner Award-winning cartoonist Moa Romanova (Goblin Girl) joins her rock star bestie on a U.S. tour, life quickly turns chaotic, as adolescent trauma begins to haunt her. Buff Soul tackels addiction, friendship, and loss in a rollicking road trip adventure involving selling speed, breaking bones, massive hangovers, drug withdrawal, and shooting guns in the desert. What begins as an insanely comical, hedonistic road trip takes a dark turn when her best friend disappears. This event triggers trauma she had yet to reckon with, leaving Romanova to confront the reality of how far she's let her self-destruction go.

Älskar stilen, fascineras av storyn, men inte olikt Shitkids karriär känns det som om den knappt hunnit börja när den plötsligt är slut.
