About the series
A provocative and darkly comic DC series from 2006 to 2008, American Virgin follows Adam Chamberlain, a young man who has publicly dedicated his life to celibacy until marriage, only to have his world upended by a personal tragedy. Written by Steven T. Seagle with art by a rotating team including Becky Cloonan, Ryan Kelly, and Christine Norrie, the 23-issue series explores faith, sex, and identity through a surreal, often satirical lens. It stands out as a bold, character-driven Vertigo-style exploration of a deeply conflicted protagonist navigating a world that constantly tests his beliefs.
