Remy Boydell’s critically-acclaimed standalone story 920LONDON—which was a 2020 solo graphic novel debut for the artist of The Pervert—has garnered a devoted fan following and inspired an original song, of the same name, by artists Ada Rook and ESPer99.
“To me, 920LONDON is a book about a really specific type of loneliness, a stubborn hope that somewhere out there the world will finally begin, even though you secretly know the grey skies go on forever,” said Rook. “I felt really inspired to write a song based on the spark of denial in the book.”
The graphic novel is set in 2005 just north of London and follows a doomed romance between two emo kids.
Boydell added: “920LONDON has been kind of a sleeper hit, I’m really grateful that people have been enjoying it. The song captures the feeling of the book so well that it’s scary.”
More than friends, less than lovers, the two main characters of the 920LONDON graphic novel are trying to grow ’shrooms before the world ends.
920LONDON (ISBN: 978-1534315044) is available now at local comic book shops and independent bookstores, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, and Indigo.
