    Notice how Modern Man is refusing to look Jesus in the eye?

    This stuff always puts me in mind of Superman
    It being 1952, the guy's thinking it's cool to meet JC and all, but I sure wish he'd get a shave and haircut.

    Looks like Jesus being psicoanalyzed by Freud... Edipus complex with Maria, perhaps?

    I like how Modern Man looks so old and bored.

    Looks very similar to the expression seen on folks' faces during sermons in church, as I recall...
