Ghostface Writes A Graphic Novel


Forget rap songs, the one and only Ghostface Killah has moved on to graphic novels.

Entitled Cell Block Z, and co-written with Marion Chapman and Shauna Garr, Ghost's book is about a boxer with his back against the wall. Here's the full description, via the Hachette Book Group:

To his fans, Cole Dennis is a heavyweight contender with a devastating right hook. To a city being held hostage to chaos and terror, Dennis has a grit and charisma that make him the shining hope for justice--until he is arrested for a brutal murder. Framed for a crime he did not commit, he finds himself captive in a foreboding high-tech superprison whose masters secretly conspire to turn inmates into tomorrow's most terrifying bioweapons--with Cole Dennis as the intended prize specimen. But Dennis is nobody's lab rat. Reborn as a towering engine of destruction, Dennis will prepare for the fight of his life. He will rename himself Ghostface Killah. And his cry of righeous rage will echo beyond the cold steel walls of Cell Block Z.

Cell Block Z, illustrated by Chris Walker, will be available July 29
