...he had just been born!
So get out those red-blue glasses and let's continue..
This never-reprinted 1953 comic from Fiction House
was one of numerous Bible-themed titles put out by various comics
publishers to try to counteract the growing tide of anti-comics
sentiment created by Fredric (Seduction of the Innocent) Wertham and his ilk, showing comic books could also be wholesome entertainment.
You can see Atlas/Marvel's version of the Nativity HERE, and DC/EC's take on the story HERE.
The writer and artist are unknown, but it's a sure bet they were part of the Iger Studio which "packaged" (provided editorial and art) for Fiction House's comics division.
The cover is by legendary sci-fi pulp and book illustrator Kelly Freas!
