The Wolverton Bible: The Old Testament & Book of Revelation Through the Pen of Basil Wolverton

Basil Wolverton’s singular, grotesquely detailed art style finds its ultimate canvas in this Fantagraphics series, which adapts the Old Testament and the Book of Revelation as a single, sprawling comic. First published in 2009, the project collects Wolverton’s visionary, often unsettling interpretations of biblical scenes, originally created decades earlier but never before compiled into a unified volume. The series stands as a testament to Wolverton’s unique place in comics history, merging his pulpy, madcap aesthetic with sacred text to create something both reverent and wildly idiosyncratic.
