Al Jourgensen se met à la bande dessinée

Al Jourgensen, le chanteur et membre fondateur de Ministry, se reconvertit et passe à la bande dessinée. Mais il ne s'occupera ni du dessin ni du scénario, réalosés par Sam 'Mister - Sam' Shearon  (Rammstein, Iron Maiden, KISS, Rob Zombie...) , il sera simplement le héros d'une série de Comics de treize épisodes. Le titre de cette oeuvre? "Ministry: The Devil's Chord - The Chronicles OF Alien F. Jourgensen". Le premier épisode est prévu pour l'été prochain et un communiqué est visible ci-dessous.

“Ministry: The Devil’s Chord” follows the adventures of Alien F. Jourgensen, a young musician who is discovered by a record label that seeks to change him, mold him, and control him. But as Alien focuses his attention on doing what he is truly passionate about — playing music — he discovers his true talent and becomes aware of the inherent powers that set him apart from everyone else, powers that are triggered by music. As his power grows, he sees truths that others don’t: chilling realities about everything from the true intentions of those who really run the planet, to the untapped powers that lie within all of us. The story is seen as an alternative view of the life and times of Alien F. Jourgensen and his rise to “super” power that you won’t find in his autobiography. Combining elements of history and real-life Jourgensen experiences — including many tidbits that were left out of his recent autobiography — the comic books will have our hero traveling the world as a rock musician where he meets and interacts with figures such as William Burroughs and Timothy Leary.”
