Synopsis
Robert Crumb, the notoriously raunchy underground comics father figure and creator of such unforgettable characters as Fritz the Cat, presents a graphic adaptation of the first book of the Bible. Relishing in the Book of Genesis's most scandalous moments (Lot and his daughter's incestuous relationship, wrathful acts of revenge from God and man, and other such made-for-the-tabloids situations), Crumb claims to be taking a "literal" interpretation, although it sometimes reads as more of a satire. Biblical scholars and religious stalwarts may debate, but Crumb's sense for visual storytelling that comes through in his adaptation is indisputable.

Publisher's Note
Four years in the making, a graphic translation of the first book of the Bible uses actual word-for-word text as a basis for its dramatic presentations and includes intricately detailed depictions of the stories of Adam and Eve, Noah's ark, and more.

Industry Reviews
"R. Crumb, one of the 20th century's most subversive artists, takes a serious look at the world's most famous book...."
(07/01/2009)

"[A] comic as unsettlingly drenched in sexualized violence as TALES FROM THE CRYPT and as subversively disrespectful to cultural icons as MAD....[T]he artist embraces a volatile, often abrasive text soaked through with lust and blood."
(09/01/2009)

"The characters in THE BOOK OF GENESIS ILLUSTRATED are all vintage Crumb: women with the breasts and hips of a young Sophia Loren; men who are hairy, hungry animals."
(10/19/2009)

"[A] beautifully drawn and relentlessly faithful rendition of the first 50 chapters of the Bible by an apostle of the 1960s and sometimes profane progenitor of underground comics. Crumb has produced what could be the ultimate graphic novel...."
