review 1: I mainly read this because I was interested in seeing how the illustrator would portray the imagery of Revelation in graphic form. If you have read the Book of Revelation you will know what I mean because it is full of symbolism and can be very enigmatic. I have to say that I was impressed with some and others not so much. It does include all 404 verses of the book along with the imagery. If nothing else, if you haven't read the Book of Revelation, there is no time like the present. It remains one of my favorite books to study.
review 2: I am not a big graphic novel reader, but I gave this one a try. It is basically the book of Revelation from the Bible in both text and pictures. The text was translated by two gentlemen and is not a well known version of scrip
... moreture. The pictures were wonderfully drawn though. The illustrator, Chris Koelle, did a fantastic job putting the word images of Revelation into actual pictures; you get to see things how John describes them. There is a lot in revelation that has multiple or deeper meanings, but the pictures depict the actual image, as John originally described it not as they might be interpreted. It was so much easier to read Revelation with pictures than with just text. Pictures add a whole new light (or darkness...?) to the book. The illustrator also shows us John and his possible reactions to what he is experiencing. This can draw the reader deeper into the book.- Curtis less

Read multiple times this year. Overly wooden literal at times but stunning in imagery and powerful.

This, was amazing! Pretty graphic, though. Rated PG-13 for a reason.
