Summary

Godspeed: The Kurt Cobain Graphic takes Cobain's story and plays it out as a totally unique graphic novel. From the luminous colours of an idyllic childhood through the flamboyant hues of success and stardom, Cobain's story inevitably declines into a much darker palette. The script draws from the singer's tortured self-image as well as straightforward biographical fact so that the tone of the book fluctuates between subjective dream-state and objective reality. Much more than a biography, Godspeed is unlike anything you have read about Kurt Cobain before. Going beyond the facts, it transmutes Cobain's extraordinary life into an equally extraordinary work of art.

Barnaby Legg has written a variety and well-recognized repertoire of fiction works. Born in the district of Grimbsy, in Humberside, he divides his time between the creation of soulpunk music with his band Girlfriends, and in coming up with his brilliant ideas. Jim McCarthy. Screenwriter. Prestigious illustrator and sketcher of comics, best-seller in the United Kingdom and well known throughout the world. He has created famous series for the British magazine 2000 AD, such as Bad Company, Bix Barton, The Grudge Father and Kid Cyborg, and has just finished a detailed history of Latin American rock in the US West coast, with a prologue by Carlos Santana himself, entitled Voices of Latin Rock: Music From the Streets. Flameboy. Sketcher. Born in the bowels of hell itself, he managed to free himself from the devil's claws and get to Earth, where he will probably remain damned for the rest of his life. Currently, he is found in the full swing of his professional career, but the shadows never cease calling him back, not even for a single moment. It is possible, and we all hope it will be so, that his work as the sketcher of comics will end up saving him from such a cruel existence.
