Michael JACKSON A Comics Biography

The next entry in the growing library that is the NBM Comics Biographies series is also within the subseries ‘In Comics’ dedicated to rock stars. It follows the very successful books on The Beatles, Bob Marley and on The Rolling Stones.

Well beyond his passing in 2009, Michael Jackson remains one of the most adulated and mysterious stars in the world. Incredible singer, brilliant musician, amazing performer, he was just as talented as he was eccentric, adored as well as reviled with sordid accusations, covered here, sadly caught between a stolen childhood and a suffocating star system.

Discover in this biography mixing comics and documentary chapters, how the youngest of the Jackson 5 was propelled to the front of the stage and then onto one of the most extraordinary solo careers in music… and the toll it took on him.

Next in the NBM Comics Biography series: Women Discoverers, Top Women in Science (March) and Love Me Please, The Story of Janis Joplin (July). And we’ve got a major tome of a bio on the superlative Alfred Hitchcock brewing for early 2022…
