Silly Rabbi!

JOKE-OGRAPHY:
My favorite part of this one is that I've added/paraphrased almost nothing here. In the Bible story, Jesus is told that His good friend Lazarus has died, so He plans to go bring him back from the dead (or "awaken him"). He tells the disciples that Lazarus has "fallen asleep", but the disciples take that literally and try to comfort Jesus by saying Lazarus will awaken on his own. Jesus reiterates very clearly that by "fallen asleep", He means Lazarus died. Thomas is reluctant to let Jesus go to Judea, because last time they were there, apparently Jesus riled up the Jews with His "Son of God" wallamaguckery, but Jesus doesn't let a silly little thing like angry people plotting to arrest and murder Him get in the way of an unslumber party with His best pal!
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Before the mantle of the earth was cooled, before the sea was sealed in its basin, before the sky was locked in place above the clouds, and before the first "Tomic" was officially published, a cartoon was drawn. Now, it is reborn. This is not technically a "Tomics Resurrection", because the original did not bear the "Tomics" name. No, this was after the era of sand and scholars but before the era of blood and time, and now, it's our very first "Proto-Tomic Resurrection". I've taken a random digital Jesus comic that I drew for my own amusement before my Tomics days and made it part of the official Tomics family. Here's the original for reference. You'll note a drastic change in character design, background art, and handwriting, and hopefully you'll agree I've improved, or else we're going to have some major problems:

Thinking about how the creator of the universe chose to humble Himself by taking human form. He went from viewing the inner workings and mechanisms of the cosmos to watching the world with human eyes.
