Radical Jesus: A Graphic History of Faith is a graphic novel edited by Paul Buhle and illustrated by Sabrina Jones, Gary Dumm, and Nick Thorkelson.
Background
editThe book is split into three sections. The first is called "Radical Gospel" and is illustrated by Jones.[1] The section is set during the Gospels, but contrasts Jesus and his disciples with people in modern day attire.[2] The second covers the events from the 14th to 19th centuries and is illustrated by Dumm. The final section is illustrated by Thorkelson and is set in modern times.
The book was published the same year as the 2013 papal conclave when Pope Francis was elected to the position and began expressing concerns about capitalism.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
