S.R. Bissette’s SpiderBaby Comix #2

In "Saying Grace," Steve Bissette pens a reflective essay exploring how religion has been portrayed across comic history—from the Golden Age Spectre and Basil Wolverton’s biblical tales to Garth Ennis’ Preacher—offering a thoughtful, personal take on faith, iconography, and storytelling. Illustrated with a diverse array of artists including Mike Diana, Dave Sim, and Chester Brown, and featuring Bissette’s own inks, this 1997 issue stands as a unique, collaborative meditation on a powerful theme. The cover by Steve Bissette complements the introspective tone with a stark, evocative image.
