The Illustrated Left Behind By Mark Allen
How would the world react if millions of people suddenly just disappeared? Hundreds of auto accidents, plane crashes, and various disasters due to loss of key personnel. Countless individuals, friends and loved ones, gone without a trace, with many theories, but no immediately clear answers. We're talkin' "panic in the streets," here. This is the premise of The Illustrated Left Behind, a comic adaptation of the best-selling book series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins that deals with a particular interpretation of the Biblical account of the "last days."
But this isn't your father's Christian comic book. As a Christian and a comic fan, I can confidently state that in terms of entertainment via well-done comic fare, this work, adapted by John S. Layman, and artists Aaron Lopresti and Jeffrey Moy, is a step up from most forays into a very particular genre.
The writers have done a good job of crafting a tale that is enjoyable to people of varied points of view. It is a moving story involving conflict, action, political intrigue, suspense, and, yes, even some theological debate for those who get into that sort of thing.
All of this is true, not despite the passion of the authors, but, in this reviewer's opinion, because of it. In short, this story doesn't fail to entertain.
Pencilers Lopresti and Moy do a wonderful job of translating this epic into sequential art. Having read the books before ever seeing the comics, I can say the artists captured the characters deftly and believably. They convey the scenes of disaster and panic extremely well, lending the story much of its power.
Hopefully, the unavoidable fear of some that they may feel "preached at" won't keep them from trying this well-done comic fare.
The Illustrated Left Behind, published by Tyndale House Publishers, 224 pages, $14.99. Available in comic shops, bookstores, online catalogs and auctions. Recommended for all ages.

No 22 - Razzle Dazzle 'em, Lizzie.
Location : Millennium Gallery, Arundel Gate.
Artist : Robert Hurst.
Sponsor : North Creative Studio.
Robert Hurst’s monochrome elephant is a tribute to Lizzie as well as the British artist Norman Wilkinson, a Royal Navy volunteer during World War I. Concerned about the increasing numbers of Navy and Allied shipping lost to German U-boats, Wilkinson wondered how to disguise their appearance. He realised there was no real way to camouflage a ship well enough to conceal it from the sights of approaching submarine commanders but it might be possible to use complex, graphic patterns to confuse them during any attack. By covering ships in alternating stripes and swirls, Wilkinson theorised that it would be more difficult for periscope sighters to accurately gauge a ship’s speed and heading, making it more difficult to target in advance of triggering any missile. His proposal was termed ‘Dazzle camouflage’ and was widely used throughout the Royal Navy and later by the United States Navy. It was even applied on land, to tanks. Each ship was given a unique dazzle pattern to avoid classes of ships being instantly identifiable. Whilst there is little evidence to suggest that Wilkinson’s artistic efforts reduced any sinkings it was said that the bold, striking patterns helped to make British sailors feel more safe, confident and proud.
