Art Young's Inferno: A Journey Through Hell Six Hundred Years After Dante

Art Young’s Inferno: A Journey Through Hell Six Hundred Years After Dante, published by Delphic Studios in 1934, is a single-issue satirical comic that reimagines Dante’s journey through a modern, politically charged hell. Created by the legendary cartoonist Art Young, known for his radical, leftist humor, the work updates the medieval allegory to skewer the social and political ills of the Great Depression era. This blistering, one-shot critique stands as a bold artifact of 1930s political cartooning, offering a timeless, caustic vision of corruption and injustice.
