Back in 1977, Brother Andrew (author of God's Smuggler and founder of Open Doors International) published a saddlestitched comic book entitled MARX, LENIN, MAO, & CHRIST, a 33 page story illustrated by the Redondo Studio and with a painted wraparound cover by Nestor Redondo, foremost comics artist of the Philippines. With Open Doors' permission, I have reprinted this story as the latest volume from Calvary Comics. The original comic had some terrible, often off-register (four color) coloring, whereas I have cleaned these files up considerably, and have them in black-and-white in the new volume (except for the covers which are in color). The results are much more legible than the original, in my estimation, and I have expanded the book to 48 pages (to fit the graphic novella format) with some very relevant single panel cartoons (all in public domain) from the 1920s-40s dealing with the theme of the Gospel vs. Communism by E. J. Pace, F. W. Alden, U. S. Abell, and Jack Hamm.
Previews of the book can be seen here:

The U.S., is making a rapid shift towards socialism and even the political powers of the former Soviet Union are shaking their heads, saying, "We've been down that road." Only Christ is the answer, not socialism or democracy, as this book strongly asserts, originally published for believers (and heathen) in late '70s "iron curtain" and "bamboo curtain" countries. It is chillingly relevant for the western world today, something Brother Andrew didn't likely expect in its original printing.
Kind regards in Christ Jesus,
