American Jesus Story by Mark Millar, Art by Peter Gross

American Jesus Story by Mark Millar, Art by Peter Gross
Review by Carolyn, Librarian at Bridgewater Library

After 12 year old Jodie Christianson escapes unscathed from an accident with an eighteen wheeler everything changes. In school he begins to ace his tests, he can cure the sick, and even raise the dead. Could this kid be Jesus reborn?  The pacing is fast and the character of Jodie is well developed. The artwork provides a clue to the story’s ending.
