Media release — the most iconic singer/songwriter of his generation, Kurt Cobain left behind a phenomenal body of work, legions of fans, as well as a mystery… a final letter addressed to “Boddah.”
Now, award-winning creator Nicolas Otero brings the story of this note to life in the forthcoming original graphic book who killed KURT COBAIN?
Based on the French novel, Le Roman de Boddah by Heloise Guay de Bellissen, this adaptation – a work of fiction – recounts real-life events from Cobain’s life, as narrated by his youth imaginary friend, Boddah.
Through the eyes of Boddah, visitors get a front row seat to the highs as well as lows of one of music’s most prominent voices like they’ve never experienced before. Trace the arc of contemporary rock’s biggest icon from the dark clubs of Seattle to the bright lights of the world stage… as well as all the angst, horror, as well as excitement that came keeping that trip in this captivating graphic tale.
IDW publishing is proud to make this statement in the city that Cobain called house during emerald City Comic con in Seattle.
“I was 17 when Nirvana as well as Kurt Cobain came to Paris in 1992,” recalls artist Nicolas Otero. “I saw them online the day before my graduation as well as it was… explosive, mind-blowing, sonic, as well as so powerful. When Kurt put an end to his life in 1994, I keep in mind hearing the name of Boddah for the very first time. I believed it might be a great method to tell Kurt’s story, with Boddah as the narrator. Twenty years later, my hair is not long nor dirty, I’m the father of three wonderful kids, as well as life has provided me such a fantastic gift. I can lastly draw this bit voice as well as check out what I pictured Kurt’s mind as well as life were inside. I hope you’ll enjoy reading it as I enjoyed doing it. I’m 17 once again today.”
“Nirvana blew the world open my freshman year of high institution as well as were gone before graduation. In 1993 I saw them play on Halloween with Kurt dressed as Barney the dinosaur” stated editor, Justin Eisinger. “But I didn’t understand about Boddah. I’d never truly believed about this mythical life — Kurt’s — from any type of point of view other than MTV-spawned voyeur. What Otero does right here is impressive. His exploration peels back the curtain, showing one more method to view this person’s life as well as accomplishments. Boddah’s narration is endearing as well as haunting… leading us to concern what we expect to discover inside those we idolize. After all, what do we understand of our heroes?”
Who killed Kurt Cobain? shows up in book stores this October.
