Exclusive Comics Excerpt: ‘Life Sucks’



Dave's got a problem: The girl he's crazy about is totally wrong for him. For starters, she's creative and talented, and he's stuck in a dead-end job as a convenience-store clerk. Plus, she's a human, and he's the ageless accursed undead. In Life Sucks, Jessica Abel (La Perdida) tells a story of trying to fit in when you can't even leave the house in the daytime.

Today on the Comics Page, we're proud to present an excerpt from Life Sucks, by Jessica Abel, Gabe Soria, and Warren Pleece. Life Sucks will be published in May by First Second Books.
