The Divine Playing Cards were designed using a mathematical pattern discovered in 1200 A.D. that seems to be the key to everything. This mysterious diagram is hiding in plain sight everywhere: flowers, shells, waves of the sea, trees, in your fingers, in your ears, and even in the shape of the galaxies. Accordingly to science, this pattern might be a trademark that proves the existence of a creator.

There is a special "easter egg" feature in the deck that will surprise your friends and guests during your card games. You'll be able to let them find out in a very unique way the answer to the "Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything else".

I have been fascinated by the Tarot for over 30 years. For me, the cards told a story within a reading that I've returned to time and again. As an artist, I have always wanted to do my own version of the cards. Taking inspiration from traditional tarot decks, I wanted to expand and illuminate with my art more of an understanding of each card. For years I have been an illustrator in the comics market drawing for all the major companies from Marvel and DC comics to Dark Horse and IDW. I've created my own characters and Joe Boy books and drawn for national companies including Bud Light and Randomhouse. I feel I have reached a level where my skills as an artist and insight on the cards have brought me to this project I call the Divine Diversity Deck.

The Inferno is a customized 56 card black and metallic ink playing card deck printed by USPCC and Inspired by Dante Alighieri's literary classic "The Divine Comedy." Three months in the making, each of the Jacks, Queens, and Kings represents a major figure from The Inferno. Each completely original character was designed as a modern interpretation that is true to the text and framed after the most famous "Inferno" Illustrations created by renowned artist Gustave Dore in the 19th Century. Staying true to that vision, we have created images utilizing the original Dore plates for our backgrounds.
