Last year, I was contacted by author Anthony Flacco and asked if I would be interested in illustrating a graphic novel, which he wrote, about the life of Nikola Tesla. I was thrilled by the opportunity to work on the story of this great man. It would have been 200-plus pages and at least 1100 panels. The script was compelling and beautifully written, and would make a great film. Long story short, it was eventually turned down by a couple of high-profile publishing companies. Heartbreaking for the author and I, but it’s still out there and who knows…maybe one day…
Here are sample panels I provided to help sell the book. They were drawn in pencil, which would have been such a fun way to create a graphic novel.
Never say never. Still have a couple of publishers looking at it!
Excellent! I still have hope for this.
Did this ever get into the world? It looks amazing!
Thanks, Jen! I’m hoping someday a publisher will give the green light. Interest in Telsa has increased lately, so the timing would be good.
