Goliath (graphic novel)

Goliath (2012) is a graphic novel by Tom Gauld, published by Drawn & Quarterly. It is Gauld's first long-form book.

The book is a retelling of the biblical story of the warrior Goliath.

Development
Gauld wrote a story about the biblical figure of Noah in Kramers Ergot, issue 7 (2008). According to Gauld, it "was one of the things which led [him] to do Goliath."

The longer format of Goliath—compared to the author's previous work—made the book more challenging to work on, according to Gauld.
