This week it’s the turn of Faith Fallon Vol 1: What Price Fame?

Who is Faith Fallon?

Faith Fallon was America’s sweetheart during the fabulous 50s. She burst onto the Hollywood scene like a shooting star. Men wanted her. Women wanted to be her. Alas, as is the fate of so many young starlets in Hollywood, her star eventually faded, and she fell out of favour.

Faith’s career and personal life continued on its downward spiral until she was found dead in her home in upstate New York. She had allegedly committed suicide.

Faith Fallon suffered a fate worse, and in some ways better, than death. This is her story.

From famous to infamous.

“From the moment you open the first page you know you’re in for something special, it’s forward thinking and ulitisation of mixed media show you the future of storytelling.”

“Behe’s dialogue brings a hip, hyper-real energy to his plot while Elliot’s deceptively plain artwork evokes a shabby world of compromised morals.”
The Financial Times

“As visionary as the technology Behe writes about.”
Broken Frontier

“The sci-fi thriller unfolds amidst vengeful relationships, insatiable desire, public outrage and mobiles that pack 1,000-volt electric nodes, pepper spray capability – Steve Jobs take note!”
Wired
