The Bible: Number 1 on NY Times’ Graphic Book Bestsellers?

Ok, maybe just the Book Of Genesis. And I think the illustrator has something to do it with this: iconoclast cartoonist R. Crumb.  Crumb illustrates every single passage of the Book of Genesis, altering nothing and leaving nothing out.  It has sold 120, 000 copies so far, and Publisher’s Weekly has an article on its success here: http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA6717934.html
