At some point after the Church Fathers decided that the Gospel was probably written by the apostle John, they associated Revelation with him solely because its author also used the same name. Others, including even Origen and Eusebius doubted the authenticity of Revelation.
The gospel of JOHN 1 John, 2 John, 3 John Revelation
These were two different Johns, attributed to two different books.
The apostle Paul did not write the book of the Revelation.The apostle John, one of the original 12 disciples, wrote this book while exiled on the Isle of Patmos.AnswerThe island of Patmos is very close to the church of Ephesus which John pastored and to which he delivered Revelation after he wrote it. CLARIFICATION: there is no evidence that the apostle John wrote the Gospel of John. In fact there is plenty of evidence that ALL four Gospels of the Bible, Mathew, Mark, Luke and John were written by people not connected with the original 12 and who had never met Jesus.
Christian tradition identifies him as the author of several New Testament works: the Gospel of John, the Epistles of John, and the Book of Revelation.
All we know about the Book of Revelation is that it is signed by 'John', who wrote from the island of Patmos. At some point, the Revelation to John of Patmos was associated with the John's Gospel solely because of the common name. Later still, Christian traditions arose as to how the Apostle John must have found his way to Patmos in order to write the book from there.Because of the association with the Apostle John, Revelation was preserved for posterity and given the status of an apostolic writing. Even so, there were doctors of the church who questioned its authenticity and complained about its theology.The second century Roman teacher, Gaius, called Revelation "heretical" and claimed that it was written by John's worst enemy, Cerinthus. The Church Father, Eusebius, called the Book of Revelation 'spurious'.There were not only serious doubts in the early Church as to the authenticity of Revelation, but we now know from analysis of the text that it was not written by the Apostle John at all.

Yes they are. The gospel according to St. John, 1, 2, and 3 John, and revelation were all written by John the apostle.
