A graphic novel about Steve Jobs is perfect for me. I only have about an hour's worth of interest in his story.

this graphic novel tried to soften the blow for Jobs by portraying a lot of inner thought/dialogue that 1) is unprovable and undocumented, and 2) is likely untrue. Jobs was a narcistic bully that thought in unconventional ways and was a brilliant innovator (I don't think inventor applies to him since he often took existing technology and used it in better, and more beautiful ways) But I guess being an asshole is not a palatable truth for kids today. we want to inspire and motivate and imply that good guys come in first. but the Jeff Bezos and Sam Waltons of the world prove otherwise. they are just still alive, and still being dicks. maybe when they are dead, they'll be eulogized, and humanized, in the same fashion.

A very good graphic novel from Campfire Graphic Novels. Worth reading for fans of Apple and Steve Jobs.

I wasn't curious enough about Steve Jobs to read an entire biography, so I settled for this well-reviewed and short graphic biography. It was actually quite interesting, balanced, and just the right length. I learned enough to satisfy my curiosity.

I enjoyed this waaay more than I thought I was going to. I didn't know much about Steve Jobs, but I learned how he was an asshole, but he did innovative things in a complete and total way.

It humanizes the technology giant and that's what I liked the most about this book. There is a balance to the point where you see his flaws as well. It is really nicely illustrated and is a 1-hour read.
