INFAMOUS: Charlie Sheen
He may not have been bitten by a radioactive spider or escaped a dying planet, but with recent “admissions,” of having “tiger blood and Adonis DNA,” actor and recently ubiquitous bad boy Charlie Sheen has the makings of a comic book character. So from mild-mannered sitcom actor to “Vatican assassin warlock,” Charlie Sheen’s life, career and recent shocking behavior will be featured in an upcoming Bluewater Productions biography comic book.
“Infamous: Charlie Sheen” not only provides a framework for his recent media-captured outbursts, but also shows the path of how the highly-paid actor reached this critical point in his career. The 32-page comic will also tackle substance abuse and mental health issues.
