Comic superheroes embody the hopes of a world that is desperate for a savior. But those comic creations cannot save us from our greatest foes—sin and death. Throughout the history of the Church there have been bad ideas, misconceptions, and heretical presentations of Jesus. Each one of these heresies fails to present Jesus as the Bible reveals him. In Superheroes Can’t Save You, Todd Miles demonstrates how these ancient heresies are embodied in contemporary comic superheroes. Miles compares something everybody already knows (who the superheroes are) with what they need to know (who Jesus is), in a book that makes vitally important Christian truths understandable and applicable to a wide audience.

I Am Jesus, the only Superhero you will ever need. This, biblically accurate, historical graphic novel presents Me as God. All of the heroes in the Bible had one thing in common, they needed a superhero. I am that Superhero, for I had no beginning and no end. I was active in the creation of the universe and have had a part in everything that has ever happened on this earth. In fact, I hold the universe together with the power of My hand. Yet, at an appointed time, I came to this earth as a baby, to grow up alongside the mortals I created. During My brief thirty-three years on this earth, I healed every manner of diseases and even raised people from the dead. I also gave the world its greatest teaching. I did this to show humankind that anyone who believes in Me, and places their complete trust in Me, would live forever with Me in Heaven. Experience Me, and let Me talk to you directly and change your life for eternity. -Jesus Christ Jesus is the only Superhero. Instead of coming from a planet far away to live on this earth, Jesus created the planets. Rather than being faster than a speeding bullet, Jesus travels faster than the speed of light. A number of the superheroes had their sidekicks. Batman had Robin, and Superman had Superboy. Jesus wants you as His sidekick. He is able to do what all the other superheroes could not do. He is able to give you the power to become one of the sons of God. Think about it, Jesus wants to give you His power. Now there's a dynamic duo! This historical graphic novel presents Jesus talking to you directly as God the Son. Jesus is the only Superhero you need for this life, and the life to come, for He has no beginning and no end. He was active in the creation of the universe. He has a part in everything that has or will ever happen on this earth and in the universe. In fact, He holds the universe together with the power of His hand. Yet, at an appointed time, He came to this earth as a baby, to grow up alongside the mortals He created. During His brief thirty-three years on this earth, He healed every manner of diseases and even raised people from the dead. He also gave the world its greatest teaching. He did this to show you that if you believe in Him, and place your complete trust in Him, you too can live forever with Him in Heaven. Experience Jesus, and let Him change your life for eternity.

Winner of the Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Fiction, Black Jesus and Other Superheroes chronicles ordinary people achieving vivid extrasensory perception while under extreme pain. The stories tumble into a universe of the jaded and the hopeful, in which men and women burdened with unwieldy and undesirable superhuman abilities are nonetheless resilient in subtle and startling ways. Venita Blackburn's characters hurl themselves toward the inevitable fates they might rather wish away. Their stories play with magic without the sparkle, glaring at the internal machinations of the human spirit. Fragile symbols for things such as race, sexuality, and love are lifted, decorated, and exposed to scrutiny and awe like so many ruins of our imagination. Through it all Blackburn’s characters stumble along currents of language both thoughtful and hilarious.

When cultures such as ours toss Jesus out one door, He comes in – albeit disguised – through another. That’s why author Jim Papandrea turned to Star Wars, Star Trek, The Matrix, Terminator, Spider-Man, Batman, Dr. Who, and half-a-dozen other modern shows, discovering in each one powerful images of Christ and salvation. Nor is that surprising. In stories of alternative universes, people always need rescuing; somebody needs to save the day; and sometimes the whole world cries out for a savior . . . which is just what a hero is. About the heroes of some of the most popular sci-fi stories of all time, author Papandrea here answers questions that concern Christians who are also Trekkies, Whovians, Matrix Dwellers, or aficionados of popular science fiction: What kind of “Christ-figure” is the hero of this story, and what does that say about the show’s vision of Christ, humanity and salvation? In the interest of being scientific, Papandrea even gives each hero a Numerical Orthodoxy Score based on the description of Christ in the Nicene Creed, Christianity’s common definition of orthodoxy. Included herein are astute Christian analyses of: Batman * Captain * America * Doctor Who * The Fifth Element * I, Robot * Iron Man * LOST * The Matrix * Planet of the Apes * Pleasantville * Spider-Man * Star Trek * Star Wars * Superman * The Terminator * The Time Machine * Tron * Wonder Woman Here you’ll read about: The pervasive Christian imagery in Doctor WhoStar Trek’s predicted “death of God”Free-will: the stumbling block in the first MatrixThe crucifixion of Spider-ManWhy Wonder Woman is an image of a gnostic saviorThe meaning of salvation in Star Wars (It masquerades as Christian)How Superman’s life begins as a parallel of Moses.I, Robot: the religious reason why the robot is called “Sonny”Whether, in any Christian sense, Neo is The One?Captain American and Iron-Man: one defends the innocent, the other brings justice to the guiltyThe tomb scene in the Fifth Element: it’s not the resurrection we needMatter vs. Spirit in Tron: gnostic to the coreThe anti-Christian bias of Planet of the ApesWhy the Force in Star Wars is no analogy to Grace or the Holy SpiritThe Star Wars Christ figure: Obi-Wan? Luke? Or even, ultimately, Darth VaderWhat Heaven is understood to be in the LOST universeTime travel as incarnation in The Terminator: a compelling analogyRegeneration as resurrection in Doctor Who: Is it Christ-like?How Pleasantville reverses the dynamism of the FallThe baptismal significance of the plane crash in LOSTPleasantville: a twisted version of EdenThe incarnation of the Christ-figure in Planet of the ApesTron’s parallels between Christianity and the Roman Empire . . . and much more about other science fiction and superhero shows! Christians who enjoy popular culture will greet this fun book with interest and acclaim.

“Are you worshiping a fictional superhero, or the Jesus of the Bible?” Have you ever wondered what makes Jesus different from your favorite superhero? Have you questioned how Jesus could really be all that the Bible says he is? This seven-week study, used in conjunction with Todd Miles’ Superheroes Can’t Save You, will challenge you to keep asking these questions, and point you to answers that are grounded in the Bible’s unchanging truth. Bible Study Sessions: Session 1: Superman Can’t Save You – Was Jesus God in disguise? Session 2: Batman Can’t Save You – Was Jesus just a remarkable human? Session 3: Ant-Man Can’t Save You – Was Jesus one of three “costumes” of the one God? Session 4: Thor Can’t Save You – Was Jesus created by God? Session 5: Green Lantern Can’t Save You – Was Jesus a good man that God adopted? Session 6: The Hulk Can’t Save You – Was Jesus a divine mind in a human body? Session 7: Spider-Man Can’t Save You – Was Jesus part man and part God? Features: No additional leader guide required! This guide contains all of the participant information, plus instructions and suggestions for the week’s discussion leader. Each week begins with independent work in “The Prologue,” brings the group together for discussion as part of “The League,” and concludes with a time of personal reflection and application in “The Fortress of Solitude." Invites you to dive in to an in-depth yet accessible study of Christology – the study of the person, nature, and role of Jesus Christ. Great for youth and college groups and adults of all ages who want to learn about Jesus as the Bible reveals him.

In 1938, Superman debuted, jumping off the pages of Action Comics #1. In the cultural context of the Great Depression and World War II, the U.S. would see the rise of the superhero not only in comic books but in radio programs, animated cartoons and television shows. Superman forever changed one's concept of the hero and became permanently engrained in both American and worldwide culture. This study explores the Man of Steel's narrative as a fresh perspective on readings of the Bible--his character is reflected in such figures as Moses, Samson and Jesus. The author argues that if we read the Bible it can be said we are reading about Superman.

As a preschool teacher, I am often humbled by the words and actions of the children in my classroom. One day during our sharing time, many of the students were talking about their favorite superheroes. As the conversations continued one sweet boy raised his hand and waited patiently for me to call on him and when I did he very confidently said, "Mrs. Feeney did you know that Jesus is a superhero?" I was so moved by what he said. I shared his words with his mom and she shared how he had recently drawn three crosses on one of the walls in their home. It is my belief that when Jesus speaks to us and through us, we should listen and take action.
