Andre the Giant: Closer to Heaven | Denis Medri, Brandon Easton
4 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
"A surprisingly touching narrative that reveals a new side to Andre 'The Giant' Roussimoff. . . . With a voice and tone perfectly matched to Andre's demeanor, Easton's writing brings Andre back to life." - Brutal Gamer Lion Forge Comics is proud to present this amazing story of a man who turned a curse into a blessing. Written by 2014 Eisner Award-nominee Brandon M. Easton with gorgeous artwork by Denis Medri, this unprecedented biography of Andre the Giant charts his earliest days on his family's farm, to his enormously successful runs in Japan, to his heated feuds with the biggest wrestling stars of all time, to his memorable turns in Hollywood TV and cinema and to his darkest moments caused by excessive substance abuse. Based on testimony from Andre's friends and colleagues - including his daughter Robin - this is the story you've never been told about Andre "the Giant" Roussimoff.

Just started this one for the #readharder challenge, a comic that isn't DC, Marvel, or Image. Should be a quick read, but its sweet and I'm enjoying it.

Andre's daughter Robin wrote a great forward to this graphic biography. This is an excerpt from a letter she wrote him.

Engaging Q&A with Brandon Easton, at the Comic Bug, today. Oh, and he signed a book for me too.
