I wrote the Foreward so I'm biased.

Why am I still reading this? And why did the the first hot chick they showed have to be the Holy Mary? I don't have to ask why Pope wants to get into her pants. But I do have to ask why she allowed it (more than once) and considered it a win for her.
Pope is getting multiple BJs in this one. At least those panels were ok. There are also the panels where Pope and Jesus jump into action. Literally. Those panels parody poses in superhero comics. On top of it all Pope is in love. With a demon, no less.
An exception to the above is the manga parody. That one was well done down to the broken English.
Other cringy moments.
Cameos: 2
Stupid violence: 8 (Santa fighting Jesus is one of them)
Sex jokes: 19, and all of them awful.

Третий том почти не отличается ни от первого, ни от второго. Все плюсы остались, все минусы не исчезли. История разве что стала чуть-чуть слабее и немного глупее, но это компенсируется убойной сказкой на ночь от Папы и последующим, уморительным сном Папы. Появилось парочка новых, отличных героев, но на этом все.

OK, the pope, the son of God and Santa Claus walk into a bar . . . A really strange mash-up with the pope crushing on Brenda, being rated mediocre at best by the son of God's mother and a big birthday celebration for the son of God. Strange but kinda fun.

The Battle Pope has some fights, sleeps with lots of women. It's starting to feel more like a Robert Kirkman book now, presented as one story with no chapter breaks. Amazingly blasphemous for an American comic: weird to think that Life of Brian got banned for so much less, not all that long ago.

If I could give it lower than one star I would. All the Hell minions got diminished to yes manning the Pope, who still sucks and whose whole schtick is still painfully unfunny. There was no tension here. Except the Jesus and Santa fight did make me smile a bit

Ok, we're starting to get a little bit deeper into the character of the Pope. Still very little story depth and the jokes are getting stale.

Juvenile but loads of fun.

Getting worse...

Probably one of the most "sacrilegious" book I have read, at least toward Catholicism. But I hunted this down because it has a seen where Santa and Jesus fight because each feel that the other has ruined Christmas for them.

Absolute hilarity once again. Jesus vs Santa was definitely the highlight, plus a visit from the slutty Virgin Mary.
