Action Bible brought to life by Marvel and DC Comics artist

David C Cook is set to release the latest Bible with a twist - The Action Bible: God’s Redemptive Story, on September 1.

The comic-style picture Bible boasts over 750 pages, depicting 215 Bible stories in chronological order.

Based on David C Cook’s bestselling The Picture Bible, this updated version features fully revised and expanded text, plus all-new illustrations from renowned Marvel and DC Comics artist Sergio Cariello.

Cariello, who has drawn Spiderman, Superman, Batman and dozens more iconic characters for Marvel and DC Comics, has laboured for three years on new illustrations for The Action Bible.

Cariello comments, “I’ve worked on many comics that I’m proud of but there is nothing like doing a relevant story with eternal value.

"All those other characters and stories will someday end, but the stories and impact of The Action Bible will last forever.

"It is a privilege and the honour of a lifetime for a Christian cartoonist to get to draw and bring to life God’s own stories.”
