Funny lady and pop culture icon Lucille Ball (one of my all-time favorites) is being honored by comics publisher Bluewater Productions.In honor of the centennial of her birth (she was born Aug. 6, 1911 and died in 1989), Bluewater will publish Comics: Lucille Ball written by Jaymes Reed and drawn by Patricio Carbajal on Aug. 24. Cover price: $3.99.
This comic, about one of the most influential women in the history of American television, tells her life story from humble beginnings to becoming a beloved household name as the star of I Love Lucy.
Announcing the comic, Bluewater publisher Darren G. Davis said, " Our goal is to show the little-known events and influences that resulted in Lucille Ball becoming the phenomenon she remains to this day, 100 years after her birth and years after her death. A visual medium provides perspective that is not only accessible but more relatable to the average person without losing any of the information involved".
For lifelong fans of Lucy, like me, no need to "splain" why she's so fabulous.
