Today marks the release of the Bluewater biography comic "Fame: Britney Spears." The 32-page bio title covers most of the public spectacle a casual reader might expect.her meteoric rise to superstardom and her harrowing difficulties stemming from her private life. However, the book looks to delve beyond the salacious headlines."She is far more complicated than most people realize. No matter what preconceptions you have about her, there will always be more layers and surprises," said issue author Patrick McCray. "Beyond the performer, there is a real human being there, struggling for a real life, struggling to connect with her art, and struggling to be understood."
According to publisher Darren G. Davis, Spears' life reflects the core of what the "Fame" line of biography titles tries to achieve. "She was created in the Internet Age to be put on a pedestal, but no one can stand the glaring lights of celebrity that intensely. The title seeks to find the person within."
The title, written by McCray, was penciled by Ricardo Jaime who also provided the cover art. The issue will retail for $3.99 and be available through most online venues like Amazon.com as well as local comic book stores.
