'Lennon,' which follows the former Beatle through his life story, will hit shelves 2017.
On the final day of 2016's New York Comic Con, IDW Publishing
unveiled a new graphic novel focusing on one of the city's most famous
adopted sons, with the announcement of Lennon, a comic book biography based on John Lennon's life.
The new book adapts the 2010 novel by French author and screenwriter
David Foenkinos, which retold the former Beatle's story through the
framework of transcriptions of sessions between Lennon and an imaginary
therapist. The story travels through John's entire life, from
childhood, worldwide fame and his solo career and marriage to Yoko Ono.
Black and white artwork for the comic book edition comes from Horne,
working from an adaptation by writer Eric Cobeyran. The English language
release of Lennon will reach stores May 2017.
