Prodigal Priest


One of my favourite bloggers has returned to the Wide Wide World Webs.

Christopher J Priest (not to be confused with author Christopher Priest) is - amongst other things - a comic writer/editor, a musician/producer and an ordained minister.

Priest's views on everything from faith to politics, to relationships and everyday life, and finally to pop culture are always a point of interest to me. His articles on race (Priest was the first African-American editor in mainstream comics) had a profound impact on the way I see the world, as did his thoughts on politics and religion. And his comic work (including his definitive take on Black Panther) is amazing.

In short, I think he's great.
