Riassunto

In 1977, four young men were the voice of their generation.

In 1978, they disappeared.

This is the epic journey of art noise band One Model Nation, the final dark days of the Baader-Meinoff Gang, and the band's mysterious disappearance only months later.

This original graphic novel comes from the mind of Dandy Warhols frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor, with art by indie super star Jim Rugg, and features a host of bonus extras; sketches, director's commentary, deleted scenes and more!
