About the series
In American Jesus: The New Messiah, Mark Millar and Peter Gross reteam for a three-issue Image Comics miniseries that reimagines the Second Coming as a modern-day miracle—and a global crisis. A young boy in Arizona discovers he possesses divine powers, drawing the attention of both fervent believers and those who see him as a threat. This 2019–2020 series builds on the duo's earlier work, exploring faith, power, and the terrifying weight of being chosen. It matters as a taut, thought-provoking take on the superhero genre through a lens of religious wonder and worldly consequence.
