Green Day have revealed a new graphic novel that draws inspiration from the track “Last of the American Girls” from their 2009 record 21st Century Breakdown.
The song recounts the story of a bike-riding and hunger-striking heroin called Gloria who wear her makeup “like graffiti on the walls of the heartland.”

Spin reports that the book celebrates “true rebel girls—girls who push back, girls who use their voice, girls who say no.” The band joined forces with cartoonist Frank Caruso for the illustrations.
Green Day released their latest album Revolution Radio in 2016. Previous reports maintain that the punk rockers were working on a film adaptation of their record as well as a stage musical of American Idiot for HBO.
