|
“The fifth chapter, by Aaron Ricker, explores how the ancient, violent imagery of Revelation is taken up and interpreted within contemporary comic book literature in the series Hellboy, demonstrating the lasting influence early exegesis has had in shaping modern perceptions of religious literature.”
