“Reward for Information Leading to the Apprehension of Jesus Christ” USA, 1917
This is rad!
Here are some great covers from Spire Christian Comics, featuring artwork from former Marvel artist Al Hartley.
First, I’m not posting these to make light of anyone’s beliefs or spread my own. Here at the Illustrated Archives I’m interested in looking into the history of art, illustration, animation and comics - whether it’s the good, the bad, the ugly, or the weird and the strange.
Al Hartley worked for over a decade with Atlas Comics (the precurser to Marvel) and completed one issue of Thor in the 1960′s. He had even worked on a few adult publications for Marvel and feeling unfulfilled he became a born again Christian and then spent the majority of his career drawing Archie’s comics and writing and illustrating for Spire Christian Comics, who published nineteen Archie’s titles by Al Hartley.
Hartley, before working with Spire, had worked on Archie’s comics; often inserting his own Christian beliefs into the stories. John L. Goldwater, Archie’s creator, was also a religious man (Jewish) and allowed Spire Christian Comics to run their own Archie’s comic titles. Goldwater was a huge proponent of the Comics Code Authority; the very strict comic censorship guidelines created in the 1950′s. Publications like Spire Christian Comics obviously thrived under the rules of the CCA.
Look how gorgeous these books are. I know there are market studies on selling books or whatever, but Protestant peeps… make it beautiful. If you’re going to have beautiful content, why not wrestle with a publisher so that your work is also beautifully presented?
“The world was in terrible shape, and I’m glad we stood up and said what we believed; but a lot of the time we’d say these beautiful things about justice and fairness and equality, but we weren’t so nice to each other. We’d be jealous and we’d gossip, and we’d be moody and difficult and rude and inconsiderate. Why do I say ‘we’? I mean I would be all that– and if at the time I ever came near to knowing what I’d become, I’d dodge, I’d duck, I’d go on the offensive: the terrible Wall Street bankers. Lots of them were terrible– and so were lots of us.”
