About this title

Synopsis

Owners of this edition will receive access to non-DRM ebook versions of every book in the series--for free! The Definitive Brother Juniper is the culmination of The Brother Juniper Rejuvenation Project. This 888-page hardcover (6.14" x 9.21") contains every single cartoon from all eight of the books in the Brother Juniper series. The "Brother Juniper" comic strip was syndicated in newspapers for thirty years and, at its peak, ran in more than 150 dailies world-wide. The comic, created by a seventy-one-year member of the Secular Franciscan Order, received an unprecedented cross-cultural response and was the only religious-themed comic strip to garner international syndication. The Brother Juniper Rejuvenation Project has done pixel-level remastering of the eight-book series using the highest caliber archival materials in order to present Brother Juniper with a degree of quality never before seen. Also, the Extended Editions supply readers with a breadth of supplementary content that traditional paper publishers are unable to produce. The creator, Father Justin 'Fred' McCarthy sums up the timeless appeal of Brother Juniper: "Take someone from the Middle Ages, put him in a modern setting and you have something funny right there. He's Catholic with a small 'c'. He's always trying to help people but always slipping on a banana peel. Characters like Brother Juniper, and Charlie Brown, lose the battle but win the war."
