Dread Locked Jesus ???

[taps]

I love the dreaded Jesus. In my church's Easter play the "Jesus" usually has a dreaded wig. Two years ago we had a man with real, really long dreads. The play was awesome! The actor really studied the scripture and Jesus's character a lot before the play. And he look ancient and authentic on the cross. The play was awesome. I think your Jesus looks good too.

Hey Red Chief,
Kudos to you on your artistic endeavors. As to a dread-locked Jesus, it isn't TOO far fetched. One of the most widely recognized icons of Christ is called,"Christ not made by hands"
which can be seen here
As you can see, the hair does look somewhat "dreaded" if you will.
As to the depiction of the other members of the Holy Trinitty, it is generally frowned upon. Only Christ took on human flesh, condescending to be depicted. Remember, no man has seen the father. The Orthodox do use an icon called "The hospitality of Abraham, which is in essence an Old Testament portrayal of the trinity. It can be seen here
Keep plugging away with your artwork, you have talent to be sure.
His unworthy servant,
Eusebios.

Red Chief, awesome sketches man , the little guy is pretty cool, i guess ya could say he's cute. and you have really displayed through the sketch a man (Jesus) that i am sure many people would want to be friends with...
somewhere in the Bible i am sure it says 'no greater love has a man than he who would lay his life down for his friend' not sure if that relates to anything but its just a verse that jumped into my head as i was typing.
i really like the third sketch (the one where the little dude is carrying a flower) i must admit, for some reason i thought Jesus was gunna jump out and do a few jump kicks and stuff to defend the little guy, i dont know why i thought that, but it was great to see, what he did do, it was quite funny, but at the same time it had a great message 'without me you are blind'......
Mate i have one thing to say to you, well ok maybe 2 things, Keep up the great work, you have some absolutely awesome skills and potential, not only are your sketches great, but the story line is awesome too. top job....

Hoi Eusebios, thanx for your comments and that God the Flesh part is true, and i dont think i will draw the other persons of god but Christ in my comics (like really messing around and throwing slapstick jokes ), cuz they
are in spirit form, not in flesh, but they DO have a form=> Son sits on the right side of the father...etc.
and it´s true too that no one havent seen Father but ALSO no one of us havent seen Lord Jesus neither, so we just have sum kinda image, and it´s OK by God,
aslong as we Dont start Worshipping the Image/s !
Peace to ya Comrade!

=>Amen! and props for your comments, The part of the comic where Jesus said: Without me You are blind, is kinda "synonym" from some of the teachings of jesus, as he said that human is blind without holy spirit, and only accepting of christ gives the guidance of god, and the two guys were not having the holy spirit so they were pretty deep in the dark without light...

But anyway that Flash Bang trick, in that comic made the comic bit more like sentimental than humouristic.
That "jump kicks" suggestion of yours is great and i think Jesus (the Sustainer<=Hi´s super Hero Name) WILL kick some **** with his FALCONS too if the peaceful trix wont work...
Peace to ya Mate!
