Acts 20:35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessedto give than to receive. (Paul is quoting the words of Jesus from a different Bible.) https://kingstone.co/collections/kingstone-bible-comic-collection/products/kingstone-bible-volume-12 John 1:51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angelsof God ascending and descending upon the Son of man. (Jesus said these words to Nathanael, but we have no record in our Bibles of Nathanael seeing that.) https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-8-who-were-the-nephilim

Preacher is not your typical religious/bible comic. Its story concerns Jesse Custer, a small town broken-down Christian preacher who finds himself with the sudden power to compel people to do whatever he says, and decides this is a gift God has given him. In fact he’s become the hiding place for Genesis, the supernatural infant child of an angel and a demon, whose power is so great it might rival that of God. Learning that God vanished the moment Genesis was born, Jesse sets out across the United States with his former girlfriend Tulip, and an Irish vampire named Cassidy, to find God.Do you think there could be a demand for something like that in Christian circles? I've been studying other comic book versions of the Bible, and as someone who has been writing and reading comics for a long time, they don't tend to be particularly high-quality comics. (See my above desire to make something which is more than a Sunday School teaching aide.)

Preacher is a profoundly adult book, filled with violence, sexual situations and takes on figures like God and the Devil that younger readers or pious people might find difficult. But as irreverent as the book can be, Preacher fits on this list as another book trying to make sense of the stories and figures of the Jewish and Christian religious traditions, and to chart a personal course forward through their strange and often contradictory demands. In the face of the suffering and corruption we witness in our world and churches, Jesse’s insistence that God needs to be found and held accountable for having abandoned the world resonates so strongly. https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-22-what-does-the-bible-say-about-astrology Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

But one kind of comic that it can be hard to come by is religious comic books. For instance, you can certainly find retellings of ancient Jewish biblical stories or Catholic lives of the saints that are in comic book format. But generally these end up being something for children to use to learn bible stories. Will Eisner’s story of a Hasidic Jewish man in a Bronx tenement who rages at God after his daughter dies is a profound retelling of the story of Job. When he was a boy, Frimme Hersh made a contract with God that he would be faithful to everything God has asked of him. So when a child was abandoned on his doorstep as a man, he adopted her as his own and made her “the joy of his years.” Then she developed an illness and died, leaving Hersh to wonder what was the point, and why does he care what God wants anyway? The tale that unfolds is unexpected and also in many ways shattering. Luke mentions that many people wrote about Jesus, but we only have two gospels before Luke in our Bibles. I have a fragment of the Gospel of Peter. Then there is also the Gospel of Nicodemus, that I think should be in our Bibles, but it seems like everybody follows Constantine as if he is God himself. There is also a Gospel of Thomas, but it is reported to be Gnostic. One interesting thing is that Thomas said that the sheep that went astray was the biggest sheep. I always thought of it as a little lamb, because when I was a little boy, I saw a beautiful painting of Jesus carrying a little lamb on the side of a rugged mountain. I knew a minister once who went astray, and he turned against me, and left the church. Many years later when I spoke to his first wife, she told me that he had now been married six times. He was a big sheep. Once I knew an evangelist that came against me when I was singing on TV. Many years later I spoke to his first wife, and she was very angry that he had left her. When I last saw him, he had a third wife. He was a big sheep. John 21:25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not containthe books that should be written. Amen. https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-14-what-does-the-bible-say-about-angels

https://kingstone.co/collections/kingstone-bible-comic-collection/products/kingstone-bible-volume-7 For as long as there have been comics, there have been books of all different kinds. While many think of comics as superhero stories, there have also been horror books, war books, romances, detective stories, science fiction, fantasies, mysteries. Today that’s even more the case.
