Second Coming Of Christ comic book cancelled

[edwest]

"Just weeks before release, DC Vertigo has cancelled Second Coming , a religious parody series from writer Mark Russell ( God Is Disappointed in You, The Flintstones ) and artist Richard Pace ( Imaginary Fiends ).

Second Coming centers on Jesus Christ, the only son of God, who is sent on a mission to Earth, where he must learn what it takes to become the true messiah by rooming with superhero Sun-Man, the Last Son of Krispex (see “DC Relaunches Vertigo”). The series announcement drew protest from religious groups, and an online petition labeling in “inappropriate” and “blasphemous” garnered more than 230,000 signatures."

Good.

10 char.

I was one of those signatures. I would recommend subscribing to citizenGO as they do a lot to protect and defend the rights of life, family and liberty.

Hallelujah.
It will likely just come out as an indie work anyway, but DC doesn’t need to be putting its brand on such junk.

I guess online petitions can work after all.

Our Lord won’t be mocked! He is not a cartoon (imaginary) character.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
Glory be to the Lord!
