St. Philip Neri – The Comic Strip #2

It’s been a big since my last strip, and people have been asking me to do more.  I was having trouble working through some decisions on how to proceed.  I was debating between continuing with St. Philip Neri as a saintly specter interacting with modern culture, or alive in his own time.  As you can see I went with the former.  I realize it is a stretch to have TV in heaven, but I couldn’t think of any other way symbolize the Saints “looking down” on us.  Anyway, now that I have worked some kinks out, others should follow more frequently.  Enjoy!

Introducing St. Philip Neri – The Comic Strip

St Philip NeriI have always wanted to do a comic strip, but have always lacked the inspiration for an original strip. Lately, I become enamored with the character of St. Philip Neri. He was a skilled orator and known for his humor. Most importantly, he was an avid proponent of genuine and pure religion. He mocked people who obsessed over looks and appearance, to point of wearing silly clothes in public or shaving half his beard off (which is how he appears in the strip).

I plan on doing at least one strip a month, and at the very least, publishing them here on my blog. I don’t have any plans right now for syndication or other means of publishing, I am just going to see what happens. Please feel free post the strips on your own personal sites, or email them to others. I just ask that you leave the image in tact with the copyright, website, and authorship in place. If you are and organization or commercial organization, I ask that you contact me for permission before re-publishing any of the strips.

Hope you enjoy it! Thanks!
