Today marks the 45th anniversary of the passing of Today marks the 45th anniversary of the passing of Ian Curtis, the unforgettable voice and lyricist of Joy Division. Curtis played a key role in my graphic biography #TalesofTheSmiths, where I revealed a little-known chapter: his brief but genuine friendship with Morrissey, sparked after they both attended the infamous Sex Pistols gig at the Lesser Trade Hall in Manchester in 1976, which a handful of people witnessed and then formed a series of legendary bands. Here are some panels from the comic, originally published online from 2012–2014, and now collected in the 464-page Tales of The Smiths (Omnibus Press), available in bookstores worldwide. #TalesofTheSmiths #IanCurtis #ripiancurtis #peterhook #JoyDivision #neworder #postpunk #newwave #Morrissey #TheSmiths #graphicbiography #johnnymar #ManchesterMusic #PostPunk #GraphicBiography #OmnibusPress #SexPistols #manchester #conchrisoulis

Rest in Peace, David Johansen. 🎸💔🎤 @Davi Rest in Peace, David Johansen. 🎸💔🎤 @DavidJohansen.official, frontman of the greatest androgynous theatrical rock group and punk originators, the #NewYorkDolls, just passed away. He was the last living Doll. 🎸💔🎤 The Dolls influenced @Morrisseyofficial to such a degree that a large chunk of my graphic biography of Moz's formative years, #TalesofTHESMITHS, was dedicated to his devotion to the New York Dolls, his formation of their UK fan club, whilst a teenager(!) in Manchester, and his authorship of their first biography. In 2004, Morrissey became a catalyst in the reunion of the last living Dolls. 🎸 💔 🎤 #newyorkdolls #davidjohansen #ripdavidjohansen #talesofthesmiths #johnnymarr #Morrissey #moz #personalitycrisis #redpatentleather #TheSmiths #smiths #graphicnovel #comics #morrisseyandmarr #busterpoindexter #johnnythunders #androgynous #punk #punkrock #manchester
