The Picture Bible for All Ages #1
"In the Beginning," the opening story of The Picture Bible for All Ages #1 (1973), brings the biblical account to life with vivid, expressive artwork by Andre Le Blanc, whose dynamic pencils and inks capture the drama of the Exodus. Written by Iva Hoth and illustrated in full by Le Blanc, this first issue sets a powerful tone with its depiction of the Angel of Death and Pharaoh’s reluctant decree—only to show the moment the Hebrews begin their journey, and the pursuit that follows.
