About this ebook

From acclaimed filmmaker DARREN ARONOFSKY (Black Swan, The Wrestler) and artist NIKO HENRICHON (Pride of Baghdad), NOAH is a fresh take on the biblical epic for the 21st Century. A fantastical world is about to be destroyed and one man is chosen to start a new one. As wicked forces try to take his Ark, Noah must hold his family together while they watch the annihilation of all they know. Infusing the Book of Genesis with fantasy and science fiction, NOAH both reinvents the elements of the Flood story everyone knows and simultaneously takes the reader beyond them and into the unexpected.

Ratings and reviews

All this story does is portray God and religion as a fairy tale like Lord Of The Rings. Shameful.

Artwork was nice, dialog was horrific. Try thinking up a new story instead of messing up one that was already done perfectly the first time.

Darren Aronofsky's second graphic novel is brilliant in its more humanistic portrayal of Noah that is thought-provoking and unforgettable. Unfortunately, the illustration falls slightly short of being able to carry the weight of the story.
