Becoming Andy Warhol is a graphic novel — an ideal medium through which to examine the artist’s history — that examines the genesis of the infamous Thirteen Most Wanted Men mural that catapulted Warhol to stardom. The novel also ably captures Warhol’s personality, which fascinated the public as much as his art, capturing the spirit of a man who was proud and publicly gay (back when that was still considered deviant), and how he loved to push past boundaries.
