Item Description...
Overview
The content of the Bible is exactly the stuff of which graphic novels are made: tales of origins and cosmic powers, battles between good and evil, and dramatic narratives of heroism and treachery. "The Lion Graphic Bible "captures all this in a stunning work of artistic genius by former Judge Dredd/ 2000AD artist Jeff Anderson and DC Comics writer Mike Maddox. They have spent five years planning, writing, and illustrating this stunning graphic adaptation. Everything from the creation to the day of judgment is depicted, creating a new rendering of the Bible in a class of its own |

 | Excellent for reluctant readers Apr 28, 2010 |
For kids who are more drawn to graphic novels and comics more than traditional books, The Lion Graphic Bible by Jeff Anderson (a well known graphic novel artist) and Mike Maddox (who also writes for DC Comics) is an excellent resource.
Illustrations reign supreme in a graphic novel, and Anderson does a superb job displaying emotions and bringing biblical characters to life. His scenes range from tranquil and lovely (as in the story of creation) to scary (as in the book of Revelation).
Maddox's text is true to the Bible, yet simple and straightforward - and sometimes even funny. The scope of this "Bible" is impressive, too. Most of the familiar stories of the scriptures are covered, including details from Revelation, which are often omitted in children's books. The stories are gritty, real, and not dumbed down.
What I Like: Everything. This is an extremely well-done graphic version of the Bible, suitable not just for kids, but for adults.
What I Dislike: Not every story of the Bible can be included in a book like this. However, the story of Sodom and Gomorrah is oddly omitted. Also don't look for the Psalms or Proverbs here; this book is about action.
Overall Rating: Excellent.
