Danny Wormwood is a popular television producer in New York City, with a reputation for creating hard-hitting if profane entertainment.He's also the Antichrist.Danny's having a pretty good time of things, though, and isn't interested in participating in the Apocalypse. Many people would like to convince him otherwise.Wormwood is a horror/comedy series from Avatar Press by Garth Ennis, Jacen Burrows, and Oscar Jimenez, which currently consists of two miniseries (the second of which, The Last Battle, took about eighteen months to ship six issues) and a one-shot, The Last Enemy. Despite Ennis's high profile, Wormwood is surprisingly obscure even among Ennis's fans.Not to be confused with Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse, an unconnected comedy-horror comic by Ben Templesmith. | |

Talking Animal: As Danny tells Maggie, he was down by the pier one day and saw a bunch of kids tormenting a rabbit. He hit the rabbit with his once-a-day mojo and the rabbit immediately became sentient and gained the ability to speak. The result is Jimmy: a proficient hacker and film buff with a Brooklyn accent who also happens to be a brown rabbit. | |

It Sucks to Be the Chosen One | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_224f98fa | comment |
It Sucks to Be the Chosen One: Danny is the anti-Christ and is the prophesied destroyer of the world, a title he never wanted and he isn't keen on following through with it. His pal Jay, the Second Coming of Jesus, has at least as many issues concerning his own destiny although in the end he decides to embrace it... But on his own terms, and with Danny's support. | |

Misaimed Fandom | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_233d181 | comment |
Misaimed Fandom: In a weird sort of in-universe way. Every time a Satanist approached Danny as a kid with plans of worshipping him or helping him along his way to taking power, they turned up dead from a heart attack or brain tumor shortly thereafter, with a "traumatized" Danny unable to explain what had happened. This is true for Jay as well. Even when he isn't all there due to his massive brain damage, he is not happy at all about how religion (especially the ones supposedly based on his message) turned out after his first stint on Earth. | |

Ironic Hell | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_237569e4 | comment |
Ironic Hell: Hell in the story is basically this. Aside from the general torments of torture and mutilation inflicted by demons, the sinners are also inflicted with punishments having to do with their sins (like a pedophile being set upon by monster children). It's also a bit of Self-Inflicted Hell as the sinners choose where they go but unlike the Neil Gaiman version from The Sandman (1989) in which people are condemned by their own guilt (so innocent people can damn themselves or be tricked into going to hell), people who die are shown the absolute truth of who and what they were, a truth so powerful that, in Wormwood's words, "cannot be denied. Not even by the truly insane" and afterwards know where they have to go. Later on, Pope Jacko, who had become the lord of Hell, states that for most, this realisation is the worst part of hell. Knowing, with absolute certainty, that you are a monster and deserve to be in hell. There's also an inversion where a suicide bomber is found in Heaven, provided with 72 virgins, as he was promised... that is, 72 screaming babies which he has to care for, all alone, forever. | |

Easy Road to Hell | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_23a0f25f | comment |
Easy Road to Hell: Inverted; it's Heaven that's surprisingly easy to get into. Bill Hicks and Jimi Hendrix are there, and a comic book shop owner gets taken there after a fatal heart attack even though he wonders what he did to deserve it (turns out, as his angel guide tells him, just being a genuinely Nice Guy helping kids find joy in reading was good enough); Double Subverted with the suicide bomber, who really ends up with 72 virgins... that is, babies. That he has to care for (feeding, putting to sleep, cleaning up...). By himself. Forever. | |

Thoroughly subverted with Danny. He may be The Antichrist and British-born, but has zero desire to go ahead with fulfilling his preordained role, contenting himself with the mostly mundane life of a shock TV executive. | |

Karmic STD | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_3b8e6af3 | comment |
Karmic STD: Jacko (the world's first Australian Pope) is a devout hedonist, regularly seen having sex with nuns. At the end of the first miniseries, his scream of "Full-blown AIDS? FUCK!" can be heard outside the Vatican. This leads directly to the plots of the Last Enemy one-shot and the concluding Last Battle miniseries, where he wants Jesus to cure him before he dies and goes to Hell and revenge on Wormwood for preventing that, respectively. | |

Corrupt Church | |

Corrupt Church: In Jay's backstory, it is elaborated that his message of peace and love has been twisted by his followers ever since his death to punctuate his suffering to control the masses which Satan claims to have taken credit for, having pitched the idea to Emperor Constantine. In modern times, the Vatican wound up electing Jacko — who is shown to be a hedonistic asshole with no respect for anyone or anything and an associate of Satan when no one else is around — as the new Pope because "it was this or the nigger". | |

Pedophile Priest: Not shown on-panel (Pope Jacko yells at an Irish Priest that they're making it difficult for Catholics to do as he says), though we do see a Crusading Lawyer implied to have chosen his causes to get close to his victims. | |

Caught with Your Pants Down: Issue four of the first miniseries has Danny, Jay and Jimmy walk in on Fucknose sucking on his own nose-replacing dick. The Last Battle miniseries begins with Danny sneaking up on Jimmy while he's trying to rub one out while watching porn of anthropomorphic rabbits porking. | |

Jerkass Has a Point | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: When Pope Jacko's cardinals call him to discuss the end of days, they claim that Danny’s criticism of religious fanaticism on live television is a sign that he is gathering his army of Satan-worshippers for the end of days. It takes Jacko - who is established to be a misogynistic asshole every bit as unworthy of his title would demand - to point out that not only is that very flimsy evidence at best, but the various incidents that happened in Danny’s life show that he is anything but interested in becoming the Prince of Darkness that he was destined to be. Later on, they bother him again by claiming that he went to Hell to gather his demonic armies, only for Jacko to point out that he could also just be visiting. He was right on both counts. | |

Masturbation Means Sexual Frustration | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_6c87dbef | comment |
Masturbation Means Sexual Frustration: God is insane (and stated to have gone nuts shortly after giving free will to humanity), appearing as a Grandpa God constantly masturbating with one hand under his robes. Even after he and Satan are impaled on the Spear of Longinus and cast adrift through space he's still going at it. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Danny's mother, right after giving birth to him. Given the circumstances (she was raped by Satan in the form of a jackal) it's sadly understandable. Subverted by Judas Iscariot, who we learn didn't hang himself in remorse but suffered an auto-erotic asphyxiation accident. Jimmy spreads rumors online about upcoming Star Wars movies, resulting in a morbidly obese fan blowing himself up dressed as a Tusken raider at Skywalker Ranch. | |

Go Mad from the Revelation | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_89b8822f | comment |
Go Mad from the Revelation: Interestingly, in spite of Garth Ennis being an atheist and generally disliking the religious interpretation of a divine creator, the reason behind God's madness here is implied to be caused by him realizing what he's done in giving mortals free will (human flaws, misery, and evil) and went absolutely drooling nuts. When Wormwood comments that God is insane to his father, Satan, his father remarks, "You would be too if you realized what you'd done by making humankind. Free will isn't something you hand out lightly". | |

Holy Burns Evil: Satan worries this might be the case while he's in the Vatican's basement looking for holy relics. Jacko reassures him that if it were the case he wouldn't even be in the room. Grabbing one of the daggers of Meggido does burn Danny's hand quite badly, requiring treatment from Maggie, though according to him, it'd take all seven to actually kill him. | |

Expy: Danny himself is one for Damien Thorn, except unlike his inspiration, he has no intention of "getting with the program". | |

Hell of a Heaven | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_e7466f83 | comment |
Hell of a Heaven: During the guided tour of Heaven, Danny, Jimmy and Jay encounter a suicide bomber taking care of his 72 virgins. That is, 72 babies he is responsible for feeding and cleaning. While one assumes that other souls that committed similar atrocities in Heaven's name are receiving similar "heavenly rewards", this trope is very much averted for most souls. While Jimmy complains that Heaven's endless peace is boring, Danny assures him that that's only because they're visiting. The souls of the dead are more in tune with the place, and are genuinely happy. If nothing else, they can entertain each other: | |

Council of Angels | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_ee045685 | comment |
Council of Angels: Implied to be what's really running most of Heaven and the ferrying of worthy souls there, given that God is a drooling, insane, constantly-masturbating moron. All things considered they seem to do a pretty good job of it from what we see. | |

Evil Brit | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_f2d29e14 | comment |
Evil Brit: Thoroughly subverted with Danny. He may be The Antichrist and British-born, but has zero desire to go ahead with fulfilling his preordained role, contenting himself with the mostly mundane life of a shock TV executive. Meanwhile, Satan uses Britishisms when speaking, and the Beast of the Apocalypse is named Nigel. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: The Apocalypse is averted with God and Satan stuck together on a weapon and forced to forever wander the cosmos, Danny and Maggie manage to work out their issues and get back together, Pope Jacko's soul is sealed inside the mind of an asshole catatonic man, Jimmy gets introduced to a female rabbit, and Jay finally starts to recover from his head injury and is planning on starting a talk show produced by Danny so he can go back to helping people. | |

The Most Wanted | |
| The Chronicles of Wormwood (Comic Book) / int_f79b419e | comment |
The Most Wanted: Danny and his coworkers pitch a new show about a man who wakes up one day to find every American law-enforcement agency gunning for him. He doesn't know why, and neither does the audience, keeping them guessing until the show's title shows up: "I Fucked The President's Wife". | |
