This week,I decided to take a look at an Irish comic that has recently caught my eye,Tommie Kelly's The Holy Numbers.
The Holy Numbers was a webcomic collected into a book that tackles the main theme of organised religion and the behaviour of cults.The Numbers are a group founded by a man known as Ravensdale (#1) who leads the movement after he claims to have communicated with a divine being.From this claim,he convinces everyone he has been granted supernatural powers and wants to bring modern Ireland into a New Age. However,before he can truely attain the means to spread his teachings,he is murdered in cold blood.This is when the story begins and we are introduced to the protagonist,Aaron Doyle,who must uncover the truth of who really killed Ravensdale and what exactly is going on within the organisation.
