I deleted the "see also" section because the links provided offered no substantial additional information about Rick Griffin. Some were not even links. If there are artists affiliated with Griffin (Moscoso certainly counts), their connection to him should be spelled out in the article, which is where the link would go. I don't think it is standard Wikipedia practice, in any case, to create a "see also" list for other artists from a movement on an individual artists bio page--that's what categories are for. If there is to be a "see also" listing here, it might make sense to point to psychedelic art or underground comix--interested readers will find out about Wes Wilson, Moscoso. etc., that way. --BTfromLA 28 June 2005 17:48 (UTC)

His conversion to Christianity

I had a book of Rick Griffin's collected work at one point. The book mentioned his conversion to Christianity. Does anyone have any further information on that. If I still had the book I would have more details about this, sorry.Javafreek 22:30, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know anything about the circumstances of his conversion, but after aboiut 1971, he was clearly an evangelical Christian, and Jesus featured pominently in his work--even some of the Zap Comix stuff. He did an illustrated "Gospel of John" in 1980--I think it may still be distributed by some evangelical churches. BTfromLA 02:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
