I learned about Voyage Comics from an article in my Knights of Columbus magazine, and so I purchased several issues- Champion of the Poor, Finnian, and the Phantom Phoenix. All are terrific stories with beautiful artwork. I plan to send them to my Godsons, both teenagers, for them to enjoy as well. Keep up the good work, Voyage Comics!
Purchased for my nephews ages 13 and 4. Both love it! The story and graphics are wonderfully done. Highly recommend!
Purchased for my grandchildren. While my grandson was reading, his sisters were reading along with him over his shoulder. The cover art caught their attention. The interior drawings and storyline held their attention. Am so glad that I ordered.
Another entry in the tradition of the Fr. Peyton comic, solid read about a priest I hadn't been aware of.
I appreciated the effort to inform us about this person. I will be watching for more news about his canonization.
