    That would be kewl—new gods. Let the gods of the bible go the way of Zeus and Osiris.

     

    Question: if the gods of the bible are invincible, why were they intimidated by a bunch of prehistoric humans building a tower to heaven? What did he think they would do to him once they got there? They wouldn’t have been able to breathe, but they could still kick his ass. So, he had to do something to stop them.

    Neil Gaiman – American Gods

    Book about all the old forgotten gods bitching about, well, being forgotten. Had another plot to it other than that but gods… bitching… crybaby’s. Loved the book didn’t care for the screenplay. Not the way I imagined it.

    NO!

    No gods. We don’t need them.

    I don’t remember anything about New Gods. I only remember that I read a few issues and didn’t like it.

     New adventures of jesus 1 (1969)

    Jesus Comix, underground comix from 1969, 70, 72.  Somewhere I’v got Son O god comics 1,2 by Neal Addams from the National Lampoon. I’ll try to dig them up.

    Unapologetic,

    Those look like they would be some hilarious reading!

    ‘Course, if a comic book back in the Twentieth Century were ever to be 100 % true to the Abrahamic and Vedic “holy” works, it would never have got past the Comics Code Authority:

    It’s just a good thing that some like The Late, Great Stan Lee took a stand:

    Halo shampoo was a real brand when Jesus comix was published.

    Robert Crumb, the most famous of the Underground comix creators, converted to xanity, and did a non-code adaption of genisis. (I haven’t read it, I don’t know how faithful it is.)

    Cool!  That’s a great tribute to Stan.

    Thanks for that link Reg. Funny film. I am now the first and only reviewer of it at IMDB. 9/10.

    It’s suspicious that poorly done religious films get dozens of 10/10 reviews on the first day. while Weekend at J’s went for 3 years with no reviews.
