Teenage Wasteland - A Rock and Roll Nightmare!
Teenage Wasteland, a brand new comic book by best-selling writer Nicholas Jennings and award-winning cartoonist Robin Budd, is the mostly true tale of two teenage boys and their fledging garage band in the 1960s Toronto suburb of Don Mills—Canada’s first planned community.
Part whimsical memoir, part local history, this lavishly illustrated, 80-page book tells of the pair’s laughable reach for rock-and-roll greatness. With cameos from local heroes Rush and Dan Hill, plus oodles of pop-culture references, Teenage Wasteland will appeal to music lovers and anyone who ever dreamed of starting a rock band.
