Jesus's Daddy Issues - Paperback

by Joe Ovelman (Author)

What if the untold years of Jesus Christ were far from ordinary? Raised by his wealthy, gay, atheist uncle, Joseph of Pennsylvania, Jesus navigates a world of moral contradiction, rigid authority, and performative piety in Jesus's Daddy Issues.

This 106-page illustrated manifesto blends bold queer-centered imagery, Sharpie-driven artwork, and sharp cultural critique into a singular, unforgettable narrative. Through satire, commentary, and visual storytelling, it examines society's obsession with private morality while broader injustices and abuses of power persist unchecked.

Equal parts political and religious satire, underground comic, and art-book experiment, Jesus's Daddy Issues challenges authority, questions tradition, and invites readers to see faith and identity in a new light. Perfect for fans of LGBTQ fiction, creative nonfiction, graphic novels, and provocative cultural commentary, this book is both a collector's piece and a conversation starter.
