GARRETT, GREG

Holy Superheroes! tells us not only that comics are fun but also that they explore and express important values and longings.

This engaging and informative book examines the spirituality that drives U2, a band whose influence has spread far beyond music and whose songs encourage listeners to put their faith into action for the sake of the poor and marginalized.

In a rich survey of literature and popular media, Garrett compares cultural accounts of death and the afterlife with those found in scripture. This book merges two exciting topics: views of afterlife and popular culture.

Prolific author Greg Garrett reminds Episcopalians of the many gifts that our tradition can offer a doubting and hurting world.
