The Fountain is a graphic novel illustrated by Kent Williams published in 2005 by Vertigo Comics, based on the original script of Darren Aronofsky's film The Fountain.[1]
The graphic novel was a way to salvage something from the film project, whose first production was cancelled. As Aronofsky said: "I knew it was a hard film to make and I said at least if Hollywood fucks me over at least I'll make a comic book out of it".[2] Later, the film project was resurrected by Warner Bros.
