December Sun – A Web Comic

I had the tremendous opportunity to work with my friend Eric Jansen recently on a comic tract titled “Vengeance is Mine”, as part of a ministry for Forsquare Missions Press.  The story was a real blessing to draw, and I found it to be a very engaging subject matter (and a nice departure from the usual “December Sun” stuff).  I love branching into new territories and subject matter, especially if the topic is ministry-related.  The book is a short story addressing gang violence, and specifically about a gang member who loses a brother, and decides to take vengeance, until Someone urges him to reconsider his actions.

The track is available at the Foursquare Missions Press site, both as a tract that can be ordered, and also as a free PDF file that can be downloaded.  I did the pencils and inks, and Jonathan Koelsch did the coloring (and the colors are just breath-taking.  I think this is the closest I’ve ever seen my artwork actually look “professional”… :)  Jonathan did a remarkable job with the colors.

There are a number of other tracts at Foursquare, all worth checking out.  Eric illustrated many of these, and his artwork is sharp (I’ve seen a number of his tracts and he adds a tremendous level of detail and realism to what he draws.  The Paraman one is outstanding.)
