Description
Rock legend and champion of free speech Dee Snider, and Z2 Comics come together to bring you He's Not Gonna Take It.
The name of Dee Snider is synonymous with the battle for freedom of expression in the arts. This new graphic novel will follow the impact of it throughout Dee's life. From a childhood where he was frequently silenced, through the early efforts to stifle his band's music, to the open warfare of the PMRC hearings in Washington DC, and his current efforts on social media, HE'S NOT GONNA TAKE IT tells the story of why free speech is so important to this man who has fought for it. Even when it endangered everything that was important to him.
About the Author
Best known as the lead singer of the acclaimed rock band, Twisted Sister, Dee Snider is a radio personality, television host, author, screenplay writer, actor, doting husband of over three decades, father of four children, and a grandfather too. Since 1997, Dee has hosted the weekly show, The House of Hair, internationally syndicated and heard in over 200 markets in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. He is also the host of our daily program, The Daily House of Hair Cut, a daily vignette version of the weekly show. Dee has starred in several reality TV shows including Growing Up Twisted, an A&E series featuring the entire Snider family and their Long Island lifestyle. He has also been a frequent host on the MTV Networks and his career as a voiceover artist has resulted in Dee being heard in many radio and TV commercials, animated shows, documentaries and had a yearlong stint as the voice of MSNBC. Never setting limits, Dee wrote, produced and starred in Dee Snider's StrangeLand. This horror flick has become a horror classic, literally creating the torture film sub-genre. StrangeLand 2 is currently in development. His recent starring role on Broadway in the hit musical Rock Of Ages generated national interest and multiple TV appearances. Dee's self-penned autobiography, "Shut Up and Give Me The Mic," was released in the summer of 2012 from Gallery Books/Simon & Schuster to critical acclaim.
