The Comic Book Bible

Product Information

Our popular illustrated "Picture Bible," Good and Evil, has been beautifully colorized by professional artists!

This Colourful, illustrated collection of Bible stories puts a whole new spin on the most important book of all time. I'd hoped the text woud be easy read but I don't think thoses who struggle to read will persevere with it. It is a tale of two widows trying to survive in ancient Israel and has a nuanced prophetic subtext all too often lost in children's picture books. Michael and Debi Pearl are the visionaries behind this illustrated graphic novel Bible storybook and Michael is the author.

My son REALLY needs visuals to help him understand as simply listening to stories is very hard for him, so I was really grateful to find this book. The biblical book of Esther is presented faithfully, word-for-word, without editing or sugarcoating the narrative. Adapted from passages in the Old and New Testaments, The Comic Book Bible includes the stories parents want their children to know - but in a format that everyone will want to read again and again! This comic book Bible is the best Bible for teens and kids and is the most complete visual adaptation of the Bible ever produced.

These books bring some of his most important and beloved teachings and parables to your home or school through engaging comic strips! This comic uses the New International Version (NIV) translation of the Bible and includes every word of the Bible. Indeed, 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. Highlighting more than five dozen stories and sections from the entire Bible--Genesis through Revelation-- The Comic Book Bible features fun artwork and age-appropriate text, along with a relevant scripture verse on every page.

Instead of looking at the Bible from a narrative approach, the Word for Word Bible Comic was produced to be more of a “literal” presentation of the Bible. The vivid, detailed pictures are illustrated by José Pérez Montero – the artists who also did The Children’s Bible that now is sold in more than 6 milllion copies in more than 90 languages mainly due to beautiful, accurate and all-round accepted artwork. Using examples from both secular and religious comic Bibles, and comic Bibles aimed at children and older audiences, Zanne Domoney-Lyttle now fully considers contemporary remediations of biblical narratives to the same degree.

The Comic Book Bible Series gives a good overview of the messages in the Bible, while keeping an exciting and easy-to-read approach.

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. While I myself am not a fan of comic books in general, I think Good and Evil could be a helpful and enjoyable tool to have in the home, especially if it's used as a tool that continually brings your children back to the Bible. It reveals the principles by which God judges us, and therefore is, and will remain to the end of the world the true center of Christian union, and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creeds, and religious opinions should be tried. Many people worked on the illustrations so the separate stories may vary in the picture stiles a little.
