A Christian comic book anthology, Proverbs & Parables features short vignettes based around the proverbs of Solomon and the parables of Christ. Over sixty artists participated in this anthology, reflecting a very wide range of art styles and genres -- from "grim & gritty" to "funny animals". This book is a visual celebration of the words of the wise, and the wisdom of God's Word.


a Biblical Renaissance?

This book was well received by me and my teenagers. There needs to be more artistic interpretations like this that tackle scripture. Not every translation done in this book is accurate to the Word of God but every piece is brilliant in its own right. Bravo! Encore!

Both Entertaining and Meaningful

This collection is remarkable for the fact that so many artists in the comic book industry turn out to be Christians. Passages from Proverbs and the Parables of Christ have been taken directly from the Bible and illustrated in styles running the gamut from mediocre to brilliant. I've seen a number of these artists before. Some of the work in this compilation represents the best efforts of some; yet with others, it seems more like work that has been slapped-together-for-free. I recommend this book because it is refreshing to see so many artists working together to produce it. However, some of the interpretations of scripture are contrived and should be read in their original context, and not merely in this volume.

Bible comics

Great idea with uneven results. Some superb art in places, but not always as an appropriate counterpoint to the accompanying Scriptures. The parts that do succeed are worth the cover price alone.
