Phonogram Intro- What is a Phonomancer?
This is a bit of a catch up on the first volume of the series, because Volksjager posted some of the latest. This kind of explains the world or Phonogram and gives you a hint of why you might want to buy the original collection (further hint: because it is ace).

Kohl is headed to a feminist rock/riotgrrl music fest, to try to use his esoteric skills to get laid. Something catches up with him.

And leaves him with psychosomatic period cramps and a mysterious quest by way of comeuppance.

Personally, I think the idea of a Retromancer is absolutely hilarious, given some of these rock bands seem to just keep on going, decade after decade, despite how much substance abuse and shit that they indulge in. It's almost like the fan's love for them is literally keeping these old rockers alive, and I think Gillen and McKelvie quite subtly tapped into this, in a way, by suggesting the musicians are aware of this and leech off their crowds deliberately.

It's like saying Lemmy keeps going just because he keeps on playing Ace of Spades to crowds of thousands every year.

If Keith Richards ever stops playing, he will immediately crumble to dust a la the ending of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
