Exclusive: Get ready to rock out to A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts with this Playlist

Ari Ackerman just witnessed a murder. Or two. Or maybe he didn’t. He’s not quite sure… From writer and colorist Oliver Mertz, artist Alex Diotto, letterer Taylor Esposito, and Oni Press comes A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts: a weird tale of conspiracy, faded superheroics, and suburban angst in ʼ90s Washington, D.C. 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 will haunt a store near you on September 2, 2026.

Teenager Ari Ackerman 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… Charmingly whimsical, darkly funny, and stylistically innovative, 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.

Writer Oliver Mertz has put together a playlist for you to get ready to rock out when you read A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts when it hits shelves this week! Listen to the playlist below and then get the graphic novel when it comes to comic shop shelves this Wednesday!
