The Comic Book Bible

Product Information

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.) I was really inspired by The Chosen TV show, and I would really like to create a comic book or an original graphic novel which relates the stories contained within the Bible in a manner which is also a genuinely high-quality creative work.

(Jesus talked about raising himself from the dead after 3 days. What scripture is that?)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 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. https://kingstone.co/collections/kingstone-bible-comic-collection/products/the-patriarchs-1-abraham

At the age of four he was walking behind his father who was using a mower. A metal piece flew out and penetrated Art’s stomach and intestines. Rushed to hospital for emergency surgery, he was losing blood, and there was not enough to save him. A local prison brought prisoners to the hospital to donate their blood so he could live. Mark 12:24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? (Writings of Enoch.)

The 95 block

When it comes to the Bible there are however, some really fine comic books out there, retelling stories both from the Hebrew Scriptures (which Christians refer to as the Old Testament) and the New Testament.
