Neverboy, a former imaginary friend, wants the real world. Julian Drag, a struggling artist, wants the imaginary.
When Neverboy's drugs wear off, the surreal hangover he's been running from sets in. And a trip down the rabbit hole is just what Julian has been dying for. When these two meet, the real and the imaginary worlds collide in chaos. Neverboy and Julian, the dreamer and the dream, will have to face who they are in order to put things right again.
This book collects the frenetic and vibrant comic series Neverboy, by the cocreator of The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys!
"Neverboy is one of those comics where once you see the cover and hear what it’s about, you’ve just got to pick it up and read it." -IGN
"Neverboy #1 reminds you of snuggling up with your childhood blanket, and then gives you a taste of what it’s like to be smothered by it." -Rhymes With Geek
"Smart and weird, hopeful and sad, I can hardly imagine (nailed it!) a better beginning." -Comics Alliance
Shaun Simon is the former keyboardist for the New Jersey band Pencey Prep, which he founded with Frank Iero and John McGuire. Following the band's breakup in 2002, he accompanied Gerard Way's band, My Chemical Romance, on tour. It was while on tour that many of the ideas for the Killjoys comic book took shape.
