What I find interesting about the storyline behind comics is that they follow the same trajetory as the story of Christ in the books written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. it is the classic Hollywood narrative of the hero on his journey. I remember when I was attending screenwriting classes who shocked I was to find out that screenwriters use a guideline called the'hero's joruney' if I am correct. There are basically 8 main steps that the hero has to go through that leaves the audience in awe of his journey. The one's that I can remember are
-The hero finds a group of companions along his journey.
-He encounters an obstacle that's practically impossible to overcome.
-The hero undergoes some kind of death (sometimes not physically)
-He undergoes a resurrection by gaining an elixir of some sort (sometimes not physically again)
I'm just fascinated by why we have not yet seen a comical version of the Bible since screenplays just about get their substance from the it..
