Laney High School and later at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he made history with his game-winning shot in the 1982 NCAA Championship.

The comic also delves into Jordan's personal life, including his marriages, family relationships, and enduring impact on the basketball community. Highlighting key moments like his iconic playoff performances and championship-winning shots, this comic celebrates Jordan's enduring legacy as one of the greatest athletes ever.
"I've written many biographies, but this one stressed me out! I could have used much more information than ended up in the book to tell the story, but I only have about one hundred pictures to explore what makes him tick.
