Testament

Edition excerpt from Testament Vol 1: Akedah (2006): From the imagination of best-selling author Douglas Rushkoff, one of the most iconoclastic and acclaimed minds of our era, comes a graphic novel series that exposes the "real" Bible as it was actually written, and reveals how its mythic tales are repeated today. Grad student Jake Stern leads an underground band of renegades that uses any means necessary to combat the frightening threats to freedom that permeate the world. They employ technology, alchemy, media hacking and mysticism to fight a modern threat that has its roots in ancient stories destined to recur in the modern age. "Rushkoff proves a nimble yarn-spinner!" — Entertainment Weekly "Rushkoff and Sharp unveil the new voice of dissent. Make no mistake, the Greatest Story Ever Told continues right here!" — Grant Morrison "Impossible to put down. Chock full of cool, forward-looking ideas." — Variety.com
