Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse is the second solo comic book series by Eisner award nominated creator Ben Templesmith (the first being Singularity 7). Unlike the bleak post-apocalyptic world of Singularity, Wormwood is a lighter series which combines humor and horror. First published [1] as short episodic serials within LOFI magazine, from 2004 until it ceased publication. IDW Publishing then collected those serials in a single #0 issue called "The Taster" in 2006 before releasing new stories in the form of several miniseries, the most recent being "Calamari Rising".
