It doesn't seem possible that The Beatles broke up as a group over 40 years
ago! Having lived through the Fab Four era I saw the group grow from a teeny
bopper, sweet song group to a relevant and controversial band of musicians and
writers whose influence on popular culture was unprecedented.
Even today the ripple effect of their music and lifestyles resonate in Western
culture and around the world. The
entire 'free love and drugs' generation
stemmed from The Beatles. They
influenced dress, art, music and other facets of society like no other music
group before or since.
From Skira and Rizzoli International
Publications and authors Enzo Gentile and Fabio Schiavo comes a unique look
at the stellar pop phenomenon known as The Beatles.
The Beatles In Comic Strips follows the group's career though its teeny
bopper days until its demise through comic strip and comic book art.
Beginning in the 1960s the comics explore every part of The Beatles' careers
and continues long after they split up until present day. Comic book, comic strips, editorial
cartoons, cameos or mentions in various comic publications are all shown.
The Beatles as a group may be long gone but they live on
in print in all of their four-color glory.
