Ozzy Osbourne - Gets Comic Book Treatment
The legendary Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne is getting the comic book treatment! Bluewater Productions just confirmed the release of a brand new comic book biography on the life of Ozzy as part of their popular Orbit series. Ozzy Osbourne: The Metal Madman will be released this week and will be available in both print and digital in case you are interested. Ozzy Osbourne has had a pretty animated life, so that makes sense.
Jump on board the crazy train and read about the artist who occupies a special place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Ozzy Osbourne: The Metal Madman was written by Michael L. Frizell and Jayfri Hashim with art by Hashim, and features a cover by famed horror artist Stefano Cardoselli.
"Ozzy's legacy is well-known," said Frizell. "A lot of research went into creating the script. One misstep, and the fans will know! Jayfri (Hashim) and I wanted to respect that legend - and the fans - by giving them something both familiar and unexpected. Writing about real people is often difficult, and when it's someone like Ozzy who's made himself tough to define and is a mainstay in the tabloids, we are challenged to find new ways to tell that well-known story."
"There are some celebrities we have done that are just media sensations, then you have someone like Ozzy who defines media sensation. I have respect for him and his story after working on this comic book," said Bluewater publisher Darren G. Davis.
The Orbit comic line joins Bluewater's biographical lines Fame, Female Force and Tribute, telling the life stories of Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Prince, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Keith Richards and more.
The print version of the book is available only at Comic Flea Market, while the digital version can be download to your e-reader from iTunes, Kindle, Wowio, ComiXology, DriveThru Comics, Google Play, Madefire, My Digital Comics, and wherever eBooks are sold.
