Prince in comic book form – now that is something to look forward to.

The Purple One is the newest icon to be celebrated in animation by Bluewater Productions, one of the top independent production studios of comic books, young adult books and graphic novels. The new comic book, chronicling the life of the music icon, is titled: Fame Prince and will be released this week and available in print and digital.

“Writing Fame: Prince was like reliving my teenage years. For me, the music scene wasn’t defined by Michael Jackson, despite his success with Thriller. The 80’s, and music in general for me, were defined by Prince,” says writer Michael Frizell. “He takes chances in his music, doesn’t sell out as an artist in order to make money, and still ends up on top. To this day, his music speaks to me. I hope I was able to bring some of his power to the comic page through my script.”

Frizell writes the 32-page comic book with art by Ernesto Lovera. The comic book will feature two collectible covers by famed artist Iordan Terziiski and Ernesto Lovera. In the past Bluewater has created comic books featuring Madonna, Michael Jackson, Drake, 50 Cent, Beyonce, Adele, Cher and more. They will also pen upcoming biography comic books on Sharon Osbourne and Johnny Depp.
