The Rapture has come and all of God’s chosen are called up to Heaven.
So what do you do if you’re left behind to face the legions of Hell?
Get a job fetching them brews.
Strange Girl follows the life of the rebellious Bethany Black and how she survives in a world gone to, well, Hell, after her family gets the halo treatment and she’s left behind.
Written with a beautiful mix of black humour and breakneck pacing by Rick Remender (Sea Of Red) and featuring some sublime and sexy art by Eric Nguyen, Girl Afraid follows Bethany’s attempts to find a way out of her day-to-day, nose to the brimstone world and, maybe, into a Heavenly reward.
