DAVID BOWIE TO STAR IN COMIC BOOK
In a summer filled with music, Bluewater Productions announced the release of new comic book biography of music icon David Bowie.
Fame: David will be released this week in print as well as digital. This summer, Bluewater has released biographical comic books featuring Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse, and Freddie Mercury as part of their popular Tribute series.
Before Lady Gaga, before Adam Lambert, before The Killers, there was David Bowie. Bowie is one of the most influential artists of his generation, reinventing his persona, changing his sound, and starting fashion trends, he is the chameleon of the music world.
Written by Mike Lynch with art by George Amaru, Fame: David Bowie features, six collectable covers by Michael Troy, Graham Hill, and George Amaru showcasing Bowie’s flamboyant fashion through the decades.
Few artists are able to make the impact on both the worlds of music and acting that David Bowie has. As a longtime fan of his work in both areas, it was an honor and privilege to work on this book,” said artist George Amaru.
Bluewater has focused on other music icons in the past such as Paul McCartney, Prince, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Keith Richards and more.
Coming soon are comic books featuring Alice Cooper, George Harrison, and the cast of Doctor Who.

My experience with Bluewater has been occasional decent writing but not quite ready for prime time art. Still, one never knows.
It will be very interesting to see what they do with the Thin White Duke. Will they make him a superhero of sorts?
I suspect it's a straight bio, but you never know!
