Someone got me a Classics Illustrated version of Matthew when I was 8 or 9. I really liked it, especially since I never went to church and was intensely curious. I’d read it over and over…my favorite story is still where Peter denied he knew Christ and the cock crew. I was called from that time though it took me a few decades to follow through.

Anyone else ever see this version? Is it still available?
 
I also would be most interested in this. I have two sons who are not real big on reading. Maybe a comic book (NOT Jack Chick :mad: ) would help my boys with scripture readings.
 
I grew up Protestant and I remember receiving a protestant prayer book at my public school :eek: . I still have it some 20 years later! 😃 But sorry, have never seen the comic book version.
 
My son’s Godmother gave him a bible that was all pictures. He spent hours looking at it until it fell apart. I tried to replace it but never found it again.

Many thanks for this link! I’ve been looking for something like this for some time. And after the terrific review at Amazon who could resist?

👍
