Brittney Griner’s harrowing detainment in Russia and eventual return to the United States dominated news cycles for the better part of 2022, becoming one of the most gripping and inspiring stories of the year in the process.
Now, the WNBA star’s incredible story is set to be immortalized in a special project from comic book publisher, TidalWave Comics.
The company issued a press release on Thursday announcing the upcoming release of a comic book chronicling Griner, written by Michael Frizell with art by Martin Gimenez. Titled “Female Force: Brittney Griner,” the 22-page comic book will highlight Griner’s days as a collegiate star at Baylor to her meteoric ascent in the WNBA to her recent fight for freedom overseas.
