"An Adventure of Faith"
Kevin Dzuban | USA
I can think of no greater use for the comic medium than to honor God and reveal scriptural truth. Thankfully, the folks at COMIX35 have made it easier to do this with the International Christian Comics Competition.
I am honored to have won 1st place in the professional division of this second competition, especially with so many talented people competing. I consider all of my successes in life as due to God and all of my failures as due to my own weaknesses – I am, therefore, very thankful to God for this particular success, and pray that it will contribute to His kingdom in ways beyond this venue. I also pray that all of the competitors, regardless of where they have placed, will be blessed in some way for having contributed their names, talents and time to this endeavor.
I would love to see this competition continue to grow and prosper in scope and influence as time passes. With the creative ablilities and love of spreading the word that I have seen thus far, it's hard to imagine otherwise. May God be willing and make it so.

"Book of the Solutions"
Fernando "Gade" | BRAZIL
I didn't hope to win the competition ... it was a surprise. I just wanted to share the story with people everywhere. I thank the Lord Jesus. I believe that each one who participated in the competition was a winner for being part of the beautiful on-line exhibition, and it was very gratifying to see my work exposed beside so many talented artists of the whole world. I thank COMIX35 for accomplishing that amazing work uniting the world family of comic creators. God worked through each one of us. I'm very happy to be part of that, and I salute all my storyteller brothers. Be blessed!
