It looks like there’s another report of a church handing out questionable comic books to children. WIVB of Buffalo, New York has a story they’re working on about some comics handed out in the area. The Evangelical Baptist Chuch in the Lovejoy neighborhood are the culprits.
The story was big enough to be a part of the channel’s Call 4 Action after an upset mother contacted them after she found her 7 year old reading one of the comics. The comic in question featured a dad killing mom while he’s drunk before being saved by the church. Showing where women stand in the eyes of this particular church.
The Guardian Project has revealed the first five Guardians. And I have to say I’m psyched to see the Sabres get past the first round.
Chicago Blackhawk
Carolina Hurricane
Los Angeles King
Pittsburgh Penguin
Buffalo Sabre
Stan Lee talks about the Guardian Project as well as screen shots from the Facebook app and a graphic to promote your favorite team (well the Sabres at least, I’m biased. Go Buffalo!).
