Brother Juniper

Brother Juniper, a comic strip that debuted in 1957 from Hanover House, follows the gentle, whimsical adventures of its titular Franciscan monk. Created by the cartoonist Justin McCarthy, the series is known for its warm, gentle humor and simple, expressive line art. Though it ran for only a single issue, its portrayal of a kind-hearted, often hapless friar navigating everyday life has earned it a cherished place in the history of religious-themed comics.
