Did YOU know Lincoln hates werewolves?
Happy Presidents Day! Let's celebrate by finishing this sentence: Lincoln is to werewolves as ______ is to zombies.
If you're familiar with Stephen Lindsay's Jesus Hates Zombies comic, (or if you ARE Stephen Lindsay) this is an easy one.
Illustrated by Steve Cobb, the comic primarily follows Jesus Christ and his undead sidekick Lazarus as they battle a zombie-infested world. But the real treat? The vignettes interlaced with the A-plot that feature Abraham Lincoln battling werewolves from childhood all the way to Washington.
Lindsay's comic is the perfect amount of levity in these Lincoln-crazy times. At this point, every time we get another Lincoln book shipped to us, a little sigh escapes. I've got nothing against our 16th president, but it's been MONTHS of Lincoln-mania, in part thanks to another Illinois president who recently took the oath of office.
But when I saw this cover? I was simply intrigued.
If you have a low tolerance for blasphemy, this four-volume series probably isn't for you. But the weak-stomached should fear not: The comic is primarily in black-and-white, making even the goriest scenes relatively tame. I mean, if you can sit through 300, this little satire isn't going to phase you.
At the end of the day, this comic is pure fluff. But it's funny fluff, and I think we can all use a little bit of that.
