Author Spotlight: Luke Pisano

Luke is a father, a writer, and, in his spare time, runs a social media company. He’s also the son of Judy Belushi, who sadly passed away in July 2024.

Before she passed, Judy and Luke began working on something special — a bold, heartfelt way to bring the Blues Brothers back through a graphic novel. It wasn’t just about a reboot, but about honoring the spirit of the original and reintroducing these iconic characters to a new generation.

Now, Luke is finishing what they started. The book is dedicated to Judy, and it marks the beginning of a brand-new chapter — one that celebrates the music, the comedy, and the soul of the Blues Brothers in a way fans have never seen before.

This isn’t just a tribute. It’s the return of a legacy.
