It's not completely clear why there needs to be a comic book describing the story of Howard Schultz's life (the "origin story," if you will), but there is one. Written/drawn by C.W. Cooke, "Howard Schultz: The Man Behind STARBUCKS" is on sale for $3.99 at Comic Flea Market.
"Learn the true tale of the man who pushed Starbucks into the stratosphere, taking it from its small coffee bean sales to its global coffee domination. See here, in comic book form, the true story of Howard Schultz, the man who made Starbucks a legend," it says.
Here's a sample page (right, click to enlarge).
