Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Wormwood is the anti-Christ, no way around it, his dad is Satan and his demonic powers help him fit right into New York. His best friend is Jesus, who is a black, mentally challenged man that just isn't performing many miracles these days. The pesky Armageddon is coming right up, and it doesn't look like Pope Jacko is going to be any help in stopping it. Also available in a limited hardcover edition (978-1-59291-042-7).

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The cleverest spoof on religion since Dogma
If you are some one who easily takes offense to religious themed humor stay away from this one. If you can take it with a grain of salt you'll probably love this. Chronicles of Wormwood is a wonderful parody of christian dogma. It can at times seem offensive but for the most part it is usually done in a clever enough way to get away with it. You wont find anything in the book ware Jesus is evil or the devil being right. The book basically does what the movie dogma does. If you like humor poking ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Been Done Before
Another book by Ennis meant to shock you into thinking he is a good writer. Avoid it like all the others.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - I think we've been here before...

Think Howard Stern: you have to listen to 2 hours of over-the-top obvious and juvenile banter for one or two gems. Those gems are good though.

Storyline is fun, and nothing too sophisticated. I think he could ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - NOT FOR THE EASILY OFFENDED
I'm not deeply religious but I have to admit to being a little shocked and offended by some of the scenes in Chronicles of Wormwood. But after reading through the entire graphic novel, that eventually subsided. Still, seeing the Pope getting a hummer from a topless nun is something I'll probably not soon forget. Wormwood is the Anti-Christ but he's really not such a bad guy. He's decided to pass on bringing the Apocalypse to the world and has decided to let humans choose their own path in life. This does ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Antichrist and a Talking Rabbit walk into a bar........
Phenominal!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely phenominal!!!!
Ennis's best series since "Preacher"!!!
I can personally guarantee you'll laugh until your eyes drown in tears.
This title is amazing!!!
Sex, Blood,
a reluctant Antichrist and his talking rabbit,
strategically-placed genitalia, more sex, Booze,
Oceans of Blasphemy, Armageddon,
a Wild-Road-Trip straight into the Heart of Hell,
even more blood, a sexually-crazed pope,
and oh yeah, did I mention ... Read More
