She’s a ride-or-die rebel with nothing left to lose—except her soul! The explosive origin of the Martian mouse who would become Scorch blazes forward in a pulse-pounding new chapter from writer extraordinaire Matt Hotson (Power Rangers: The Return) and red-hot artist V Ken Marion (Nightwing).

Feeling betrayed and abandoned by her former crew—Modo, Throttle, and Vinnie, long before they would become the legendary Biker Mice from Mars—the mouse called Scratch tore across the Martian wasteland with her sister Rally, only to fall into the clutches of the ruthless Sand Raiders. Now a prisoner in a lawless desert, Scratch faces a choice that will define her forever: stay true to who she was . . . or embrace the darkness calling her name. To survive—and to strike back—she’ll have to shed her past and forge a new identity: Scorch! But revenge comes at a cost. With her sights set on both her mother—the iron-fisted Governor Slicks—and the friends who left her behind, Scratch is ready to burn it all down. The only question is: When the dust settles, will anything be left of the mouse she once was?

Sixteen-year-old Ari Ackerman just witnessed a murder. Or two. Or maybe he didn’t. He’s not quite sure. What he does know is that he loves the Washington, D.C., punk scene and is trying very hard to process the perpetual impending death (and frequent resurrections) of his cancer-stricken father. Ari’s best friend, Maya Meng, just wants to hang out and go see Jawbox play at the Black Cat. But sadly, an escalating series of unexplained deaths can really ruin a perfectly good day.

For readers who like What’s the Furthest Place from Here?, Love and Rockets, David Lynch, Daniel Clowes, Seinfeld, Agatha Christie, Powers, Fugazi, and Wes Anderson, A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts is sure to evoke all the feelings that come with being an outsider, making sense of the world around you, and finding your place in it.
