Mendy and the Golem

Set in a Hasidic Jewish community, Mendy and the Golem (1981–1984, Mendy Enterprises) followed the adventures of a young boy and his clay protector across 19 issues. Written primarily by Leibel Estrin and illustrated by Dovid Sears, the series offered a unique blend of Jewish folklore and superhero action. It stands as a notable, faith-driven independent comic from the early 1980s, creating a niche for culturally specific storytelling in the medium.
