Religion in comics needs your help

Here is a great site with thousands of comic books to read and enjoy. They even have a special section of foreign language comics. I only speak the King's English, so I miss out on a lot. But if you speak one of these languages, then you can contribute to Religion In The Comics by finding religious content in foreign comics.

Arabic
Catalan
Dutch
French
German
Hindi
Italian
Philippine
Portuguese
Romanian
Spanish

Just head on over to http://comicbookplus.com/?cid=1514 and do some treasure hunting.
Any effort will be greatly appreciated by your humble host.

I love Hinduism and its mythologies. I'll bet the comics are great!


I wonder if other religions find Abrahamic mythology as exotic and interesting as I find Sanskrit epics. But then I think those salvation religions that convert everybody are all over the place. I'll bet more Hindus know about Noah or Loaves and Fishes than Christians know about Rama or Bhishma.... so it's not so exotic and unknown. Plus I don't feel threatened by Hinduism. I'll bet Hindus and others aren't so at ease with Christianity and ...well Islam in India isn't a bowl of cherries....
