Jamaican musician Ziggy Marley is spending some “Family Time” with Angelenos this weekend. In anticipation to the April 20 release of his first ever comic book series, “Marijuanaman”, Ziggy Marley will be performing at the 3-day Hempcon event held at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

During the medical marijuana show that, according to the event Website, “caters to those who may be benefited from the medical use of marijuana”, Ziggy Marley will introduce his next creative project as well as perform on Saturday, April 2nd.


“Marijuanaman” from Image Comics is the character conceived by Ziggy Marley, written by Man of Action Studios, Joe Casey and illustrated by Jim Mahfood. The novel tells the tale of a noble extraterrestrial champion who has arrived on Earth to deliver an important message, and at the same time save his own planet. "Marijuanaman represents the hope of the future... the hope that we will utilize all of the power that the universe has given us to save our planet," Marley explains.

To that, Mahfood adds that “Marijuanaman” is something that has a unique flavor and feeling, and will not be what people expect it to be. The book hits stores April 20, 2011, for $24.99.
