![]() ![]() Reinhard Kleist’s STARMAN weaves the gripping tale of this outrageous character’s genesis, rise, and fall, as well as of David Bowie’s hapless efforts in the London music scene before Ziggy’s arrival, and of the struggles he experienced with his own creation at the height of his fame. His provocative play on sexual identity and gender roles laid the foundation for David Bowie’s ascent to becoming one of the most successful pop musicians of all time. In 1972, the rock’n’roll messiah ZIGGY STARDUST was born. ![]() Kleist is a Berlin based illustrator and comic artist who has previously delved into the illustrated biopics of other musicans such as Nick Cave ( Nick Cave: Mercy on Me) and Johnny Cash ( Cash: I See a Darkness), cementing him as the man for the job when it comes to tackling the influential pop god, Bowie. ![]() Reinhard will be launching his new comic about the life of iconic David Bowie on Thursday 6th April 2023, 7-9pm. We're very excited to welcome R einhard Kleist to the shop launching Starman: Bowie's Stardust Years from SelfMadeHero, supported by Goethe-Institut London. ![]()
