Synopsis
"Bible Black" is a collection of short stories and poems that invoke some of the rawest of human emotions and leave you feeling ultimately grateful for life as you know it. Morvay touches on everything from lust to religion, to war to abortion in this deranged compilation of fairy tales.
The artwork in 'Black' is much more in tune with with my sense of taste than Morvay's previous title "Lobster Girl". It features a slew of amazing artists that really know how to take the macabre imagery behind Morvay's stories and put them into a gruesome gallery of delight. John Masse, Dariusz Skitek, Oliver Cereto, Simon Johns, Antti Isosomppi, Shane Deruise, Shelley Bergen, Michel Winckler Krog, and Helmuth Voss (damn that was a mouth full) all contribute to the grisly awesomeness that is "Bible Black." Don't just take my word for it; open the book and see for yourself. There's pure wickedry on its pages.
There is a message behind "Bible Black's" stories; they are not just pieces of fiction to entertain the bored. As you read you will start to lose grip on what's real within the confines of its covers. It touches so close on reality that it has the power to make religious readers send hate mail, mothers hold their children close, and youngsters take a serious look at their lives and think about whether they are making the right decisions. Bible Black gives you a reason to love life, and be grateful for the things you have. It could be much, much worse, and J. Morvay proves that with his stories.
This is one of those few rare occasions where I believe someone's talent has shown through in its most purest of forms. J. Morvay deserves utmost respect for this comic, and he gets it from me. He throws caution to the wind, and puts up a proverbial middle finger to anyone who refuses to face reality. Everyone, horror fan or not should own a copy of Bible Black. It is not just a book for those with twisted heads; it is a book for everyone. It is a point of view, a message, a symbol of what is and has been, whether we choose to accept it or not.
