For the first time, the harsh tumultuous ancient setting of the world’s most famous stories will be realised in an exciting graphic novel series aimed at ages fifteen and over.

Although the Bible is the all time best seller and continues to shape morality, laws and culture around the world today many adults and young people don't know much of what is in it. In addition, many who try to read it fail to grasp the full meaning of it's words due to being unaware of the historical and cultural context surrounding the stories.
From understanding today’s Middle Eastern politics, to engaging readers with this source of so many famous fantasies and fictions; Lord of the Rings, Superman, Narnia and Harry Potter (to name but a few); there’s no escaping the Judeo-Christian influence and the role of the Bible. Using sequential art this project makes the epic, timeless stories within accessible for men and women without anything missing from the original text.
“One might argue that the Word for Word Bible Comic is actually a more authentic presentation of the Bible than our bare printed texts, which invite us to fill a visual vacuum by supplying pictures in our own imagination of people and events. I highly recommend it” - Rev. Dr Christopher. R. Smith : Doctorate in Historical Theology and the Bible. Author of “Understanding the Books of the Bible” Study Guides from IVP
It's called the greatest story ever told for a reason! Its tales contain politics, power struggles and betrayals to rival Game of Thrones, it has more bloody battles than Miller’s 300, and more demons thwarted than an episode of Hellboy; it has a Messiah more crucial than John Connor and more powerful than Neo, and a villain more devious, powerful and older than Galactus and Loki combined.
Back it on Kickstarter before the 27th of Septemeber to get your Limited Edition pre-release copy.
