Wood verkende een breed scala aan genres, van sciencefiction tot horror, waarbij hij een diepe innerlijke spanning in zijn kunst kanaliseerde. Deze intense toewijding, hoewel bijdragend aan zijn genialiteit, eiste ook een aanzienlijke persoonlijke tol en liet een blijvende erfenis na in strips en beeldende kunst door zijn uitgebreide illustraties voor diverse media.
