I suspect that's nothing new to comics, but they tend to go to greater lengths to cover their tracks than I have.
That's some nice work.

I don't think Jesus would be in favor of copyright laws. I think he'd be an 'open source' kind of guy.
He was generally very reluctant to openly criticize unjust laws, and as far as I know never directly encouraged breaking laws.

A little mini-comic (two pages) I created recently that may be of interest to the Spirituality Forum.

On some, like the cover, I used several reference images to arrive at the finished product. Some are looser adaptations of the source photos and some are more literal. I only bring this up because I think many people would expect that I crafted the final images solely from my imagination, with perhaps only a furtive glance or two at any reference material. But that is not so. I heavily accessed reference material for the creation of the final imagery for this particular project.
