  • There's a new mini-comic out now for a series called Lives of the Saints (and people who lived saintly lives). I made it. A preview of the book is below. The rest of the book is about St. Thomas Aquinas. You can purchase the book at:

    Here's the preview:

    God bless.

    Hey, not bad! Nicely done in a newspaper comic style! Im sure in time your style will improve very much. Hope to read your comics soon... they're very charming! I'll pray the quality of your work improves so you can move up in the ranks of comic artists... we need some good Catholic ones very much!

     :smile:  Thanks for posting here!

  • Thanks! I have more comics here:

    Art for me, I don't know. It's a big struggle. I used to do it more full time, used professional materials an processes. Samples here:

    All that has stepped down a notch these days with vocational obligations. But I don't know if i've stayed the same or gotten worse. Any way, the answer is to keep working, and I guess that's what I should do.

    I just read all of your Saints comics and enjoyed them immensely.  I do hope you will do more - you have a great talent.

  • What exactly was the miracle that happened? I didn't quite understand.

    In regards to being a responsible man, would it be interesting to learn, after six years of accuмulating all the wisdom you could, that you had it right all alon

  • I read about this story in a book I have about Eucharistic miracles.

    When the Protestant girl approaches the sanctuary to place the flowers on the altar, a "mysterious force" makes her kneel to the floor as she nears the tabernacle . That is when she realizes that it is in fact true that Jesus is present in the Blessed Sacrament.

  • you could do some Jack Chick like comics, exposing the false beleifs, but with less sterotypes and some actual real facts/info..would love to have someone beat him at his own game with those little comic booklets.......

    used to have some story lines written down, again, with real facts....

    It's like Alex said. I guess I should do something to make that clearer, since some seem to get it but others don't. Any suggestions?
