Despite the recent media hailstorm and public criticism aimed at celebrity chef Paula Deen for inflammatory racial remarks, Bluewater Productions announced that it will not change plans to publish its "Female Force" biography comic book title featuring the embattled TV personality due out this fall.
"We do not condone her use of racial insensitivities, and think that intolerance has no place in a just society, said Bluewater's president Darren G. Davis, "But despite her recent failings, we also strongly believe she still has a powerful story to tell; one that fits the female empowerment model of our books." The book, which has been in production for several months prior to the recent negative revelations, does not look to reward or disparage Deen, but frame her story as an entrepreneur who transformed a home-based catering service into a culinary empire. "Under the greatest scrutiny, many of our heroes let us down, but we also believe in the power of redemption," Davis added, "In all biographies there are chapters full of great accomplishments and those full of challenges. I believe Ms. Deen's story is not yet completely written."Print copies of "Female Force" can be ordered at www.comicfleamarket.com and found on Amazon.
You can download these titles on Wowio, Comixology, DriveThru Comics, Google Play, My Digital Comics, Overdrive, Iverse, PanelFly, iTunes, Kindle, Wowio, Nook, Kobo and wherever eBooks are sold.
