Jeff Loveness presents a twist on a well-known part of the Bible - the betrayal of Jesus by Judas Iscariot, accompanied by incredible art by Jakub Rebelka. Loveness' story takes us through Judas' motivations for betraying Jesus, imagining his life before he became a disciple, and then takes us into Hell after Judas betrays Jesus and takes his own life. In Hell Judas confronts Satan, who offers twists on Biblical narratives and the narratives that Judas has been telling himself.

In spite of the promising concept, I found the writing a bit plodding, perhaps because it leans so heavily on narration and exposition. The main strength of the book is Rebelka's art. Rebelka's style isn't one seen in many graphic novels and I found it creative, bold, vivid, and engaging.
