Highway Wolf Unleashes Its First Comic Book, Blending Music, Storytelling, and the Call of the Wild
Highway Wolf, the boundary-pushing musical project from musician and songwriter Mick Hellman alongside his creative partners Tal and Amber Morris, is taking its storytelling to new heights with the release of their debut comic book. Co-authored by Hellman and Amber Morris, with stunning illustrations by Nate Gomez, the comic is an electrifying fusion of music, mythology, and adventure that will captivate music lovers, wildlife advocates, and comic fans alike.
The comic follows Purdie, a restless dog, who leaps from his owner’s car, chasing the wild freedom he longs for, only to come face-to-face with the enigmatic lone wolf. Through fast-paced, noir-infused storytelling and striking artwork, the comic captures the thrill, rebellion, and mystique of the open road, blending the grit of classic outlaw tales with a pulse-pounding sense of adventure.
“Highway Wolf started as a music-driven storytelling project, but it’s grown into something much bigger—an entire world where music, art, and the wild converge,” says Hellman. “This comic is just the beginning of how we’re bringing that world to life in new ways. It’s been incredible to see this character and this story take shape visually, and I can’t wait for people to dive into it.”
At its core, Highway Wolf is part of a large creative vision that merges music-driven narratives with a deep reverence for the open road and the untamed wild. The project extends beyond the pages, featuring a spotlight series that highlights real-world animal organizations and conservation efforts, reinforcing themes of freedom, survival, and preservation.
The comic book is available now at HighwayWolfMusic.com/store.
