It's the anniversary of Elvis Presley’s death, and the King of Rock and Roll is being remembered today as the inspiration for some unique biographical comics.
Elvis comics have been coming out for years, but one of my faves is definitely Marvel's Fantastic 4 2099 #2 release when we were introduced to the Elvingelicans, people who worshipped the King and patiently awaited the day he would return to rock again. Haha.
Check out the Elvis comics above and keep clicking for more Elvis tributes from Trend Hunter's archives.
