God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves‚ the murderers of all murderers? What was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet

For my Rhetoric In Practice Project‚ I decided to write a comic book which brings out the in-depth meaning in stories and thus helps readers or the audience comprehend the stories better.

When I first read the prompt‚ I had thought about a lot of different genres to convey
