Selena, whose birth name was Selena
Quintanilla-Perez, will be the focus of "Female Force: Selena,"
a comic book in English and Spanish being released by TidalWave
Comics on Aug. 11.
"So much has been said about Selena. I wanted to tell her story
while bringing something new to it. I hope the readers - and her
fans - enjoy what we've put together,” said Michael Frizell,
writer of the comic book.
The book is part of a series focused on women who make a
worldwide impact.
Sometimes called the Mexican Madonna or queen of Tejano,
Texas-born Selena died on March 31, 1995, when she was shot by
the founder of her fan club.
But her Grammy-winning music has continued to sell strongly.
Tejano, also called Tex-Mex music, fuses American and Mexican
influences.
