"Muhammad Ali as you’ve never seen him...a new graphic novel mixes comic book art and rarely seen photography... powerful combination"  - The New York Times 
 
Award-winning writer JD Morvan and renowned photographer Abbas'' stunning graphic novel masterpiece which uses iconic photos to uniquely illustrate the historical ''Rumble in the Jungle'' boxing match between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman.

"The drawings and photos allow us to revel in the imagery and history of that unforgettable night, and the torrid pace of the storytelling, the many flashbacks allow us to see the full context of the fight" - The Ring

On the 30 th October 1974, the most famous boxing match of the 20 th Century took place. Nicknamed the "Rumble in the Jungle", it pitted Muhammad Ali, desperate to win back his world champion belt, and George Foreman, the current holder, against each other. Foreman had just KO''d the only two boxers to have ever beaten Ali. By his own admission, Ali was terrified of facing him in the ring...

Now, the photojournalist Abbas immortalises this legendary meeting, having kept his photos in his personal archives for 36 years before unveiling them to the world. In a cross between a documentary, photo report and graphic novel, this book reveals the context of the most powerful photographs taken by one of the greatest photographers of the Magnum Photos agency. Enriched by the testimony of Abbas himself, Jean-David Morvan''s script is rigorously brought to life by artist Rafael Ortiz.

"[A] gritty, action-packed hybrid work of photography and comics art ... lands plenty of punches" - Publishers Weekly
