IT'S an unlikely combination of fangs and football.
One plays a native American werewolf in the Twilight movies, the other plays for Milan and Los Angeles Galaxy.
So what do Taylor Lautner and David Beckham have in common? Both feature in new comic book biographies hitting stores this week as part of the Fame series from American publisher Bluewater Productions.
Bluewater president Darren G. Davis said: "Beyond their obvious talents, Beckham and Lautner embody the very reason we created the Fame line of bio comics. Each has a uniquely compelling story and each has made a definitive imprint on popular culture."
Writer Pete Rogers and artist Pablo Martinena bring Beckham's amazing career to life, from his earliest days on the pitch, when he dreamed of playing for Manchester United, to the challenges of his soccer days in the United States.
Lautner was an unknown until he made his debut in the popular vampire-romance movies. Kimberly Sherman, whopenned the biography comics of his co-stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, also wrote the new Lautner comic, while Warren Martineck, an artist for DC Comics' WildStorm studio, provided the interior art.
"We've found a niche with our bio comics," said Davis. "There is a much wider audience for sequential storytelling than many thought. These readers are simply looking for something other than superheroes or horror.
"With our bio comics, we strive to bring these new readers even-handed, well-researched looks at some of their favourite celebrities."
