Red Rocket 7

In Red Rocket 7, writer/artist Mike Allred spins a cosmic-rock fable for Dark Horse, following an alien clone who becomes the ultimate session musician, secretly shaping the sound of 20th-century pop music. Spanning seven issues from 1997 to 1998, the series blends retro sci-fi with a love letter to rock history, as its hero drifts through decades alongside fictionalized legends. Allred’s signature pop-art style and heartfelt storytelling make this a singular, trippy meditation on identity, creativity, and the unsung architects of our favorite songs.
