When a group of misfits discover themselves to be the
re-incarnations of Catholic Saints they must put aside their differences to
battle the fallen angel Michael and his army of Doomsday Zealots. Critically
lauded, this is the comic debut of award winning playwright Sean Christopher
Lewis (Kennedy Center Rosa Parks Award; NPR'S This American Life) and graphic
artist Benjamin Mackey (of Twin Peaks Tarot Card fame). SAINTS is the wildly
funny and challenging story of people questioning what they believe in the midst
of fighting for it. Religion, Humor and Heavy Metal combine in this audacious
drama for adults. Sean Lewis' plays have been produced the United States and
Europe winning the Kennedy Center's Rosa Parks Award, the Barrymore Award, the
Smith Prize and many more. His work has been published in the NY Times Sunday
Magazine, lauded in the Huffington Post, and heard on NPR'S This American Life.
He is a proud father, husband and Artistic Director of Working Group Theater. He

Benjamin Mackey is the co-creator and artist of the ongoing series SAINTS
alongside Sean Lewis. While this is Benjamin's first foray into the world of
comic books, he has been working as a freelance illustrator for various books,
magazines, and films over the past six years. He lives in Arizona and enjoys a
damn fine cup of coffee.
