American Virgin is a Vertigo comic book by Steven Seagle. It follows the life of Adam, a teenager who is a born-again Christian preacher, and his struggle with his girlfriend who is in Africa. There are two sagas as of October 2006, the first is "Head", consisting of four issues, and the second is "Going Down", which consists of five.
'American Virgin' (which I just call 'Virgin' for short!) is a new ongoing Vertigo monthly about sex and death and how long you can live in the shadow of one without retreating to the other," explained Seagle. "It's written by me and drawn by multiple Eisner nominee and all-around hippest woman in comics - Becky Cloonan. 'Virgin' will do for global sexual myth, history and practice what 'Preacher' did for gross-out action and 'Hellblazer' did for demonology. | ||
