and gotham chopra he has twittered about it being finished when the world sees it

FATED is the graphic novel Gotham and Michael had worked on together. Can't wait to get into my hands.

Fated is a story written by Michael and Gotham Chopra about a rock star named Gabriel Star who has become so lonely and isolated in his enormous fame that he attempts suicide by jumping off of a bridge. However, Gabriel survives the jump but he doesn't let ANYONE know. He watches his death play out and watches his legacy become somewhat supernatural.
Fated was originally scheduled to be released in June of 2010, but Gotham says the date has now been pushed back to September. Gotham also just tweeted yesterday regarding Fated "it won't truly be finished until the whole world can see it!" :lol:
Here is one link regarding Fated but there are several if you just google Fated Michael Jackson Comic Book...

Michael Jackson wrote a graphic novel

Michael Jackson browsing in L.A.'s Golden Apple
Should that headline read "Michael Jackson wrote a graphic novel!!!" or "Michael Jackson wrote a graphic novel???"
Either way, it appears the late King of Pop will soon be conquering another part of pop culture. Reporting from the Frankfurt Book Fair, Publishers Weekly reveals that Jackson and his friend Gotham Chopra (son of famous guru Deepak Chopra and former honcho of Virgin Comics) had quietly spent years collaborating on a book called Fated, about a reclusive pop superstar whose failed suicide attempt makes him even more famous and "something not quite human." (Whether that means he somehow gains extraordinary powers or is just, you know, kinda like Michael Jackson remains to be seen.)
The book, a small black-and-white hardcover illustrated by Mukesh Singh, is due out from Random House/Villard in June 2010. Here's hoping its success leads to a 12-issue Thriller maxi-series

It's common knowledge in comic book lore that a superhero never truly dies—and it looks like that rule is crossing over into reality, if only for one upcoming comics project.
According to Bleeding Cool, a graphic novel written by none other than Michael Jackson himself is heading to comic book stores next June through Random House.
The graphic novel, titled "Fated," focuses on the story of Gabriel Star, a well-loved musician with obvious parallels to the tragically deceased King of Pop. In the book, Star's failed suicide attempt results in his popularity rising even further, elevating the character to literal supernatural status.
Apparently, Jackson had been working on the project long before his death and had finished his work on the book earlier in 2009. The comic is co-written by Gotham Copra of the now defunct Virgin Comics with Mukesh Singh supplying art.
Jackson's work on a comic book isn't entirely out of left field. Earlier in his life, the late musician met with Stan Lee about possibly purchasing Marvel Comics.
It's also not unprecedented for a deceased party to thrive in comics after their death, as seen by Heath Ledger's own passing and subsequent portrayal of Joker in "The Dark Knight."
But even if Jackson's geek credentials and the precedent for post-mortem comic book work are in place, the existence of "Fated" is no less jarring. It's particularly ironic that the story focuses on the almost death of a heroic pop star who simply becomes more popular after the botched attempt.
Sure enough, Jackson might not be returning from the great beyond—but between the upcoming documentary "This Is It," the biographical comic book from Bluewater Productions and now "Fated," it's as if Jackson himself has elevated to the same super-powerful status of his graphic novel's lead.
What do you think of the Michael Jackson-written comic book? Will you check out "Fated" when it comes out, or is the idea just too eerie for you? Sound off in the comments!
