![]() | In the time of the Messiah, everything is permitted. The zealots are gathering, the city burns. The final war is coming - but no one told the men on the ground. Holed up in a ransacked building in the heart of occupied territory, two Israeli soldiers are caught under fire: Buddy and Slomo hold their ground, soldiers soldiering, keeping back the Caliphate the only way they know how. But the real danger emerges from behind their back when two wholly unexpected visitors take refuge: a Texan in a Stetson and the widow of a rabbi - fresh from a disastrous morning in Jerusalem, and chaperoned by the young captain Yossariat. Yossariat is having a bad day. A very, very bad day. Forced together, at the frontier between earth and heaven, the visitors' true motives become clear. . .Petrol Jesus Nightmare #5 (In the Time of the Messiah) is an apocalyptic vision of a new world order fuelled by faith, politics and dollars. | |||||
