Mad Cave Studios will be dropping a horror graphic novel this November, which will mark its first time in print since a digital release from Comixology Originals. Filmmaker Helen Mullane (Nicnevin and the Bloody Queen, Lifeforms) teams up with Eisner-winning artist Tula Lotay (Somna, Barnstormers, Supreme: Blue Rose), colorist Dee Cunniffee (Crossover, Redneck) and letterer Richard Starkings to bring you Groupies. Inspired by 1970s fanzines, real-life interviews with teenage girls, Groupies dives into the slasher-tinted horror with shifting point-of-view narratives, allowing each girl to tell their own story and shattering the male gaze. It's time to Rock and Roll all Nite, we have a special preview of it down below for you!
Writer: Helen Mullane
Artist: Tula Lotay
Colorist: Dee Cunniffe
Letterer: Richard Starkings
On a wild night out at the Fox Club, the coolest, hottest, and wildest girls on (or off) the Strip meet the edgiest up-and-coming band in town, and sparks fly. The Moon Show’s stardom is about to rise as they celebrate getting signed to the legendary Asmodeus Records.
As the story unfolds, the excited groupies head on tour with the band – living the dream – but their tuned-in and dropped-out idyll is about to unravel. Something dark is pulling the strings, and the girls are about to discover the true cost of rock and roll.
“Groupies is a deeply personal book, born from mine and Lisa’s shared obsession with pulp horror, music, and the strange contradictions of being a woman in the world,” said Helen Mullane. ‘We wanted each girl’s voice to shine through—because groupies aren’t just muses or clichés, they’re complicated, messy, and real. I’m thrilled to be teaming with Mad Cave for the print release, giving readers the full, woozy experience of Tula Lotay’s stunning art—plus some new extras that make our trippy, dangerous world even richer.”
Available for the first time in print following its successful digital release from Comixology Originals, Groupies hits comic shops and bookstores on November 4, 2025. Preorder at your local comic shop now—because not all dreams survive the tour.
