Hey guys and gals,
Wanted to let you know my new comic book, "Black Sabbath" is out on August 23. Pre-Order a copy now!
BLACK SABBATH WITH OZZY OSBOURNE GETS THE COMIC BOOK TREATMENT
TidalWave Comics is proud to announce the addition of the English rock band Black Sabbath to its popular “Orbit” comic book series focused on personalities who impact the world. “Orbit: Black Sabbath” is released on August 23, 2023.
Written by Todd Matthy (Robots vs. Princesses) and illustrated by Martin Gimenez, this 22-page comic book is available both digitally and in print and can be found on multiple platforms such as Amazon. It will also be released in paperback and hard cover the same day with a special cover by famed artist Noumier Tawilah.
TidalWave Productions delves into the blazing origins of Black Sabbath, the groundbreaking heavy metal pioneers hailing from Birmingham, England. Through the band's own words and stunning interpretations, their remarkable journey is chronicled, forever altering the course of music.
“Working on the Black Sabbath cover was a lot of fun. I've been a huge fan of both Sabbath and Ozzy's solo music since I was a teenager. For the cover artwork, I tried to create a collage of the band's performance scene inspired by the "Paranoid" video clip and added a pig as a homage to the song "War Pigs". The color palette was inspired by psychedelic concert posters from the late 60s and early 70s.” Said cover artist Noumier Tawilah.
“I knew I had to do this right to make something worthy of the band. I didn't want to just cover the basics, I wanted to show the full scope of their history. Using the band's own words and visual interpretations of the classics, beautifully rendered by Martin Jimenez, this book is the definitive comic on Black Sabbath.” Said writer Todd Matthy.
“As a reluctant reader, I found the comic book form easy to access, so I always believed comics could both entertain and teach,” said publisher and creative force Darren G. Davis. “We have done a solo comic book in the past on just Ozzy, we wanted to showcase the full iconic band as a whole.”
The "Orbit" comic book series has been featured in “Entertainment Weekly”, "Rolling Stone" magazine, "Time" magazine, "People" magazine and has featured musical artists such as John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Alice Cooper, David Bowie, Dave Grohl and more!
TidalWave Comics vast catalog of titles can be purchased in print on Amazon also be downloaded on ComiXology, DriveThru Comics, Google Play, Overdrive, iTunes, Kindle, Biblioboard, Nook, Kobo and wherever eBooks are sold.
