Earlier this week, I sent people to Wayne Batson’s promotional video for his fantasy trilogy, The Door Within.
Today my friend Al Hsu, directed me to . . .
Dave Zimmerman’s promotional video for Comic Book Character.
It is the best book promo video I’ve ever seen. But I already said that in the title. (Be warned, it’s about ten minutes long.) But the end is worth the wait, you’ll see Al himself speak to the camera about Zimmer-Man with manly admiration.
The interesting thing is that the video has some very serious things to say. Zimmer-Man’s super power belt contains books of theology and paper clips and red pens—all the normal tools of the trade. It’s silliness, of course, but it’s also a good reminder that a Christian’s ordinary life is super-powered by the Spirit of God.
Here’s another way to say it: Our daily work is a high calling. (And if you hurry over to TheHighCalling.org, you’ll see Al’s article about an old-school superhero, a special radio message that is close to my heart, and our first article by Image Journal editor, Greg Wolfe.)
(I haven’t read Dave’s book, but I am itching to now.)
