This exploration of sequential art delves into the depiction of sacred narratives across various mediums, beginning with the 14th-century Egerton Genesis picture book. It then transitions to the striking triptychs of Hieronymus Bosch from the 15th and 16th centuries, followed by Basil Wolverton's 'The Wolverton Bible' (1973-1974). The analysis continues with DC Comics’ 'The Bible' (1975) and concludes with the innovative Manga Bibles (2006-2011) and R. Crumb's distinctive 'The Book of Genesis Illustrated' (2009), showcasing how these diverse adaptations reimagine biblical stories.
