Emily and the Strangers

In Emily and the Strangers, Dark Horse Comics brings the punk-rock spirit of Emily the Strange to a new medium, with a 2013 series written by Mariah Huehner and Rob Reger and illustrated by Emily Ivie. The story follows Emily as she forms a band and navigates the chaotic world of music and misfits, blending the character’s signature gothic whimsy with a DIY ethos. This three-issue run matters as an expansion of the Emily the Strange universe, capturing the creative energy of its cult-favorite protagonist in a fresh, visually distinctive format.
