There's another really good André graphic novel by Box Brown. Surprisingly well-researched, too. IIRC, there's a section of citations and sources in the back.

For anyone who hasn't, I highly suggest reading Box Brown's graphic novel Andre The Giant: Life & Legend. It's a really heartfelt and moving biography of Andre's life, but it's also brutally honest. It talks about the trials of growing up the way he was, how he later became sort of an alcoholic and could often be an asshole to people, how he had a daughter he pretty much abandoned, but how he was also constantly in pain and wrestled up to the bitter end because the boys were basically the only family he had and he was lonely when he was home.

And of course, it covers all the big moments (Wrestlemania 3, Princess Bridge, etc.)

REALLY great read.

Box Brown's graphic novel is incredibly good (his Andy Kaufman/Jerry Lawler graphic novel is too).

Reminds me of Box Brown's wrestler comics. He is a master of capturing character in a simplified style like yours.
