Monasteries were for centuries ground zero for illustrated manuscripts that edified through word and image. This is merely a modern incarnation of the same notion.

Comic books are a great way to tell a story and put a point across. They basically are like the storyboards filmmakers use when planning a movie. I always felt that reading comics were like watching movies. I don’t buy comics any more; but I still read my old ones. Using them to explain a religion and its doctrines is a great idea, IMO.

It became appallingly clear how little any of us knew our faith…I had just stumbled upon the greatest problem of my generation of Catholics,” wrote Amadeus.

It is pretty appalling. I find it hard to believe that a comic book is going to solve that problem, but if it gets some Catholics to begin to further delve into their Catholic Faith, I guess that's a good thing.
