'You spend all afternoon with our lord and savior and all you can say is
he's a "nice guy"?'
I just about died when I got to this line. *big cheezy grin* I must say
this is one of the most bizarre books I have read in a long time. Tim is
a short dumpy little guy who works in the mail room of a company called
Christianity, Inc. One day, one of Tim's co-workers challenge him to
sneak up into "the BIG guy's office". Tim's co-worker distracts the secretary
while Tim sneaks into Jesus' office undetected.
Tim ends up talking to Jesus for a while and giving him marketing advice
for how to spread Christianity. One day Tim convinces Jesus to leave his
office for the first time in eons. Once outside, he sees that humanity has
lost touch with the original spirit of Christianity. He and Tim then
decide that the only thing that can save humanity is the second coming
of Christ.
No, it's not anywhere near as moralistic as I'm sure it sounds at the
moment. It's really a very funny, witty book. This is only one book in
the Hey Mister series, and not all of them contain Jesus. This issue is
very inventive and highly entertaining. The art is cartoony and goes
perfectly with the tone of the book. I highly recommend this book. :D If
you see it in your local comic shop, you should definitely pick it up.
