We Sold Our Souls meets a Josie and the Pussycats-from-hell in Def Leppard’s HYSTERIA, the graphic novel, a supernatural thriller that tells the tale of the world’s most dangerous guitar! Worship at the altar of the almighty Guitar. It wants your love. It craves your blood. It desires YOU. A struggling band is gifted with a magical guitar that rockets them to success, but when it’s stolen they’ll stop at nothing to get it back. When Foz, the frontwoman of indie band Darkside, inherits her father's estate, it comes with a guitar she half-remembers from her childhood. The guitar speaks to her, promising fame and success. Soon, it delivers. But when Darkside’s equipment is stolen at a massive music venue, just before they’re set to take the stage with Def Leppard, Foz goes on the warpath to get it back. A knuckle-dusting rampage ensues, and the guitar's true history is revealed. Written by Phil Collen (Def Leppard) and Eliot Rahal (Bleed Them Dry), and illustrated by Alex Schlitz, Def Leppard's HYSTERIA is a musically immersive experience, featuring never-before-heard music from Darkside (written by Phil Collen), appearances by Def Leppard, loads of rock n’ roll easter eggs, and the tale of the guitar that’s destroyed many bands. Def Leppard's HYSTERIA explores fame, addiction, gender dynamics, silencing of female voices, mistreatment of women, female empowerment, rage, and descent into madness. For fans who are fascinated by Faustian bargains for fame with music’s mysterious and legendary artists – and curses: Blue guitarist Robert Johnson (and his song Crossroads), violinist Niccolo Paganini, Giuseppe Tartini’s Devil’s Trill Sonata, the Gloomy Sunday curse, the “Curse of the Ninth,” Jelly Roll Morton, the many members of the 27 Club, and even poet Percy Bysshe Shelley (To a Lady, With a Guitar), as well as the books We Sold Our Souls (Grady Hendrix), The Wicked + The Divine (Kieron Gillen), Your Favorite Band Cannot Save You (Scotto Moore), The Armageddon Rag (George R.R.
