I studied all about it, and that leads directly to the creation stories, because obviously there are no demons created in the Bible but there are angels created and where did demons come from? Well, they are bad angels.So that means right back to the Serpent, and the Serpent is the one who has the knowledge that Adam and Eve apparently want in order to eat the forbidden fruit.What I wanted to do in this graphic novel is take all that knowledge - my demonology, studies of angels, all those things and put them into a cool story that visually you can watch it happen.That's what you'll find in this graphic novel. You'll find an angelology; you have the creation story, you'll even have the dinosaurs in there because the dinosaur underneath our feet had to come from somewhere. And they're right in the creation story as well. And all those things make a nice, compact, a very exciting little story.Now it's called Eve, because Eve is the main character that we focus on. It was her and the serpent of the Tree that first dialogue about the mystery of the forbidden fruit.Without her eating the fruit we don't have a story to talk about. In fact, we don't have a world that we know of right now, with all the things that go on, without Eve eating that fruit.Anyway, that's the graphic novel called Eve. I'm the author, Francis Testa and I hope you enjoy it. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
