Oliver Graves certainly doesn’t look like a standard stand-up comedian, with his gothic style of a black wig and dark eye makeup. Indeed, he had the four judges on “America’s Got Talent” wondering what he was going to do when he auditioned on the July 12 episode. But he soon left them in stitches with his offbeat sense of humor.
