The greatest comeback of all time is explored in this new comic book biography of the iconic and indomitable Tina Turner! Born Anna Mae Bullock, Tina started her life as a singer in her local church and elementary schools. Her ill-fated relationship with Ike Turner coincided with her meteoric rise-up the Billboard charts and led to her eventual fall. After retooling her image, Tina once again exploded on the scene in the 80s. Tina’s life story is rags to riches to rags and back again tale of love, loss, and rebirth.
Female Force: Tina Turner, is a 22-page comic book, available digitally on multiple platforms and in print, released at the Tina Turner Heritage Days in Brownsville. The book is available in hardback with a cover by famed comic book artist Joe Phillips and a paperback cover by interior artist Ramon Salas.
“Turner’s life has been seen in documentaries, films, music, Broadway, so why not a comic book. We believe that it is important for readers to have inspiring role models and learn about extraordinary individuals who have overcome challenges to make a difference in the world.“ — Publisher Darren G.
