About the series
From 2007 to 2008, IDW published Wormwood Gentleman Corpse: Calamari Rising, a four-issue miniseries written and illustrated entirely by Ben Templesmith. This darkly humorous tale follows the adventures of an undead, dimension-hopping gentleman in a world where the supernatural is mundane and cosmic horrors lurk just beneath the surface. Templesmith's signature frenetic, watercolor-style art brings this bizarre universe to life, blending Lovecraftian dread with a punk-rock sensibility. A must-read for fans of Templesmith's singular vision, it stands as a key entry in his creator-owned body of work.
