That's too bad, as boy, an AC/DC comic book drawn by Thomas Teneny would have looked excellent! I promptly told him that Bon was NOT in Hell, and I don't care if he was running the place! Right after that, Marvel was clobbered by video games and downsized, dropping the Marvel Comic book on AC/DC. He wins the game and they allow the band to come down to play one more show together. When the gentleman from Marvel called me, he told me that the storyline was Bon in Hell playing cards with Nixon and the Devil. Things have changed so much over the years, but Marvel was having trouble finding pictures of Bon for a comic book. Then I would send those articles to their publicity contact and in the early '90's, I was contacted by Marvel Comics.īefore AC/DC released Bonfire, it was hard to find pictures of Bon. I used to publish my own music paper called Rock Central and every year I always included a story about how I met the band. I asked rock and roll historian, Susan Masino, who has written a few books about AC/DC, about the history of the comic book and she was very nicely filled me in: RELATED: How Wonder Woman's First Female Writer Was REALLY Identified MARVEL TAKES AC/DC ON A HIGHWAY.FROM HELL? I was the artist on that book, but a bump in the road between the companies led to the book being on indefinite hold. Then there was the ACDC comic book that was set to be released by Marvel. Not only did I do work on the interior for an album, but also a cover for the band.

Tenney initially was going to do MORE with AC/DC, specifically a comic book series starring the band! In an interview with Horror Tour Guide, he revealed (when asked about the highlights of his career in comics):
Young still rocks that schoolboy outfit to this day. Young's schoolboy look was featured prominently on the band's first album in 1975. Angus Young was (and is) the lead guitarist and he famously wore a schoolboy uniform as a gimmick (which led to some confusion when it came to his age when the band was formed, which I covered in another Music Legends Revealed). Their sister came up with the band name (which has led to a number of legends about the origin of the band name over the years, which I've covered in a Music Legends Revealed). STATUS:ĪC/DC was founded in Australia in 1973 by Malcolm and Angus Young, two brothers who had moved to Australia from Scotland in the 1960s. Marvel nearly did an AC/DC comic book series in the 1990s. Great deal, right? So go follow my Twitter page, Brian_Cronin! COMIC LEGEND: NOTE: If my Twitter page hits 5,000 followers, I'll do a bonus edition of Comic Book Legends Revealed that week.
As usual, there will be three posts, one for each of the three legends. Welcome to Comic Book Legends Revealed! This is the eight hundred and third installment where we examine three comic book legends and determine whether they are true or false. In the latest Comic Book Legends Revealed, learn whether Marvel nearly did a comic book series in the 1990s starring the legendary Australian rock band, AC/DC!
