The illustrated book of Genesis, Robert Crumb

To say this book is a remarkable volume or even a landmark volume in comic art is somewhat of an understatement. It doesn't hurt that excerpts of the book appeared during the summer in the New Yorker and that the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles is opening an exhibit of the original drawings from which the book's contents were adapted.
"The Book of Genesis," Robert Crumb's version, nevertheless stands on its own as one of this century's most ambitious artistic adaptations of the West's oldest continuously told story.
