Mike McCready Unveils Farewell to Seasons: A Grunge Graphic Novel and Opera

Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready has spent two decades developing Farewell to Seasons, a graphic novel presented as a historical fantasy of Seattle’s early-’90s grunge scene, with a linked ‘lost’ rock opera featuring original music. Preorders are live via Z2 ahead of a wide release on Oct. 7. McCready collaborated with writer Mark Sable and artist Sebastian Piraz, aiming to capture the creativity, community, and chaos of that era.
