I am a big fan of Mike Allred's work, first with "Madman" and more recently with some of X-Statix with Marvel comics. Now Allred, a member of the Church of LDS has put together a comic book entited "The Golden Plates." I saw the comic at my local comic shop and it had the Allred style all over it...which is a hoot, because his style is one that I wouldn't have thought of for adapting sacred literature.
I figured if any group of people have read this, they would be here. Any readers of this? Worth getting for a non-LDS person? Allred himself describes the book as "It's a Wonderful Life" meets "Conan the Barbarian" which, as invites to a religious text go, you can't get any better. I am sorely tempted but also sorely broke so my comic budget is limited.

Oh, I get where it came from but not how it relates to my question. My thought is that people think it either is a bad idea or badly drawn or whatnot.
