About the series
In this graphic biography from SelfMadeHero, Dutch cartoonist Typex (the pen name of Raymond Koot) crafts a vivid, sprawling portrait of the iconic artist Andy Warhol, tracing his life from his Pittsburgh childhood through his reign as a pop art titan. Originally published as a single, substantial volume in 2018, the book distills Warhol’s complex persona, Factory scene, and cultural impact into a visually inventive narrative that mirrors its subject’s own bold, collage-like aesthetic. Typex’s meticulous research and expressive linework make this an essential, empathetic look at an artist who blurred the lines between commerce, celebrity, and creativity.
