No one knows better than Yours ...Hey there Stephen! <BR/><BR/>No one knows better than Yours Truly how hard it is to create a really great alternative comic book. Heck, even the Smilin' One and Dennis Kitchen couldn't pull it off way back when Marvel decided to jump into the cultural fray with Comix Book. But I have to say, nicely done! A 21st century slasher-flick rift on Frank "Foolbert Sturgeon" Stack's classic "The New Adventures of Jesus" is how I read it, with a little post-modern Harvey Pekar realism thrown in for good measure. <BR/><BR/>We almost went in the same direction with the about-to-be "Savage" Silver Surfer (Marvel's very own copyrighted Christ-figure) towards the end of his first run of books. Unfortunately back in the those days of The Code, zombies were still as taboo as voodoo, and the book got cancelled anyways.<BR/><BR/>Still, I quite enjoyed "Those Slack-Jaw Blues." Keep up the good work!<BR/><BR/>SmileyStan the Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07325386526564969318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013512278969446207.post-59192209799925689662008-05-13T15:29:00.000-04:002008-05-13T15:29:00.000-04:00And what did you think of "Jesus Hates Zombies"?
