It is the year 2019 and a group of scientists manages to collect a sample of the DNA of Jesus Christ from the Shroud of Turin in order to make a clone of Christ through artificial insemination, and then implant it in the womb of a teen virgin named Mary. This is the plan of the reality show called J2 but apparently, things didn’t turn out as expected.
With this premise, Punk Rock Jesus develops a story full of moral conflicts in which we will question many of our principles. Through his writing, Sean Murphy has developed very complex characters who are also very well characterized thanks to his extraordinary drawing style.
Like a punk song, this work is transgressive and is also a sign of protests against some actual incidents.
Known as one of the pillars of independent comics, Punk Rock Jesus is a must-read for anyone who wants to enjoy a story very different from the rest. You can get a copy of this book at Book Depository, hope you give it a chance.
