Overview

Matthew's Gospel is one of the most influential pieces of literature in Christianity, religion and history of all time! This graphic novel presents every word, chapter and verse, within its historical, cultural and geographical context. The unabridged story is illustrated in a bold contemporary style but remains as faithful to the Christian scripture as possible. The comic seeks to paint a balanced biblical picture of Jesus. By including his every word, action and interaction, whether loving or wrathful, long-suffering or harsh, servant or king, we get a more accurate depiction of the person of Christ and his mission as Messiah. Featuring the best selling English Bible translation, the NIV, with verse numbers at the bottom of each page.

Author Bio

Simon Amadeus Pillario: Based in Bristol, England, Simon Amadeus Pillario has a degree in graphic design and has been professionally illustrating comics since 2002 and has a love of Dark Horse and Image comics, especially B.P.R.D. and anything by Mike Mignola. He became a committed Christian at the age of 23 and after reading the Bible as a young adult was struck by how much of the exciting intrigue, drama and challenging elements are dropped from dramatizations and visualizations of the bible stories. Passionate about the full Word of God and unsatisfied with the cut-down, child-friendly Christian comics available he was inspired to create this product for adults and mature teenagers. Leslie Simonin-Wilmer: AKA Sindos. Graphic Designer by day, Comic Book Colorist by night, probably found drawing lions on all surfaces. Based in Mexico. Ryan Esch: Ryan is a graphic designer and illustrator from Michigan living in Japan who has been making comics since 2012. He loves storytelling, anime, manga and practices both digital and traditional art.
