As a global audience anticipates the wedding of Prince William to Kate Middleton, the biography comic book and graphic novel from Bluewater Productions highlighting their romance is set to hit shelves tomorrow, just two days before the nuptials. The Royals: Prince William & Kate Middleton written by CW Cooke and penciled by Pablo Martinena, looks to give context to two perceived fairy tale lives and how an eight-year romance flourished in such a fishbowl existence. This has been one of Bluewaters most anticipated biography books, said Darren Davis, president of Bluewater, Fans of the royal couple will love this issue for portraying William and Kate as two well-rounded and grounded individuals. But it also has enough pomp and spectacle to match the excitement surrounding the event. The standard 32-page comic book retails for $3.99 and will be available at comic book retail outlets. The special collector's edition 40-page graphic novel retails for $7.99. National book stores like Barnes & Noble and Borders will be carrying it along with well as several online venues including Amazon.com. There was considerable spectacle and buzz thirty years ago when Charles and Diana got married, Davis said. But I think this wedding surpasses that one simply because it offers a diversion from the constant barrage of news of war, economic hardships and political enmity. Its simply a good news story thats a bit larger than life. Bluewater also announced that another royal will be joining the ranks of comic book biographies. Williams brother Harry will be featured in his own book this August. London, UK. 4/26/11.
