A wild exploration of stardom and its price from Babydaddy of the Scissor Sisters in his comics writing debut!

A reclusive rock star receives a mysterious package that forces him to face both his past and a resistance movement that represents all of the ideals he had once stood for.

In a world where fame can consume the soul, a once-revered musician has chosen isolation over the limelight. But when an unexpected package arrives at his doorstep, he's thrown into a whirlwind of memories, regret, and a rebellion that seeks to rekindle the ideals he abandoned. Nostalgia is a raw and thrilling exploration of celebrity, redemption, and the power of music, crafted by Scott Hoffman AKA Babydaddy, the award-winning composer and musician behind the Scissor Sisters.

With stunning visuals from renowned artist Danijel Zezelj, this gripping tale blurs the line between past and present, forcing its protagonist to face the very essence of what it means to create and believe.
