Here is your first look into the “Female Force: Brittney Griner” comic book! There is a soft cover as well as a hard cover! Also a new quote from the publisher.

“This story is about an athlete who overcame obstacles to become a significant player in the WNBA – not about politics. We started working on this story about four years ago to diversify the line, as we’ve featured several male athletes in past issues. Her development as an athlete, and her struggle with coming to terms with being a gay, black woman, first at a religious college and then in the national spotlight, are the focus of this issue. Since we have 24-pages to tell the story, we used that focus to inform what should be included and what we’d have to leave out. For example, as her story developed, we thought we should add two pages about her arrest in Russia. However, as the artist finished the interiors, a deal was struck with Russian authorities, so we rewrote those two pages to ensure our information was accurate,\u201d said publisher Darren G. Davis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He continued, \u201cshe has an amazing personal story, and we wanted to tell more stories about women in sports. She just happened to be the first. We have plans for women in soccer (football) and more.\u201d\u00a0

Female Force: Brittney Griner
Writer: Michael Frizell
Artist: Martin Gimenez

Phoenix Mercury star Brittney Griner told ESPN, “Don’t worry about what other people are going to say, because they’re always going to say something, but if you’re just true to yourself, let that shine through. Don’t hide who you really are.” Despite personal challenges, her meteoric rise in the WNBA after a storied college hoops career inspires many. But her detainment in Russia for carrying less than a gram of cannabis oil in a vape cartridge through an airport has overshadowed her achievements. Read her inspirational story in this latest installment of Female Force.
