"NBM graphic novels comics biographies."--title page verso.
Well beyond his passing in 2009, Michael Jackson remains one of the most adulated and mysterious stars in the world. Incredible singer, brilliant musician, amazing performer, he was just as talented as he was eccentric, adored as well as reviled with sordid accusations, sadly caught between a stolen childhood and a suffocating star system. Discover in this biography mixing comics and documentary chapters, how the youngest of the Jackson 5 was propelled to the front of the stage and then onto one of the most extraordinary solo careers in music.

Very informative! This sheds some important light on Michael Jackson, and in how we can understand what it looked like from the media and "outside" based on decisions he made aimed at self preservation and protection. And how he was robbed of his childhood and kept chasing it later in life.
This is a quick read, and the comics were good -- but not as essential as the write-ups for each one.
