'''''[http://www.biblecomic.net/ Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth]''''' ([[Fun Withwith Acronyms|B.I.B.L.E.]]) is a series of comics about Heaven, Hell, and everything in between. The universe of the comic takes root in Christian mythology, draws inspiration from many religions and myths and stays true to none of them.
 
The world is divided in two planes: That of the living, and that of Heaven and Hell who have been at war for as long as anyone can remember. [[Muggles|Most mortals like you and me]] live with no real knowledge of the afterlife, and it is Heaven's most important duty to [[The Masquerade|keep it that way]], however hard it is with Hell itself constantly trying to break down the borders.
Line 6:
Heaven is inhabited by those dead who have earned a chance to live forever as an angel. Hell is full of demons and monsters that can only look at the benefits of having a soul with envy, and in turn most of them hold a natural hatred for all things to do with Heaven. These conflicts are only fueling the strife that seems like it will [[Forever War|last for all eternity]].
 
The comic can be found [http://www.biblecomic.net/archive/rebound-volume-1-cover/ here]. It updates on Mondays. Do not confuse with [[The Bible (Literature)|the well-known book]] [[Name's the Same|by the same name]].
 
=== Tropes appearing in BIBLE: ===
Line 28:
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: The Sins. Wrath is a giant bear with horns and glowing eyes. Four others are pictured in the gallery section, and are just as hideous.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Lieutenant Duncan, both in- and out-of-universe.
* [[Everything's Worse Withwith Bears]]: Wrath. Also, [[Incendiary Exponent|he drools lava]].
* [[Evil Is Not a Toy]]: Wrath goes on a rampage after the [[Summoning Ritual]] is disrupted.
** Also, several of the vampire cultists were disintegrated by Wrath's power ''when the ritual was still working properly''.
Line 37:
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: Oh yeah. [[Our Elves Are Better|Elves]] look down on [[Our Vampires Are Different|vampires]], species created by [[God]] look down on those created by [[Humans Are Special|humans]]...
* [[Fantastic Rank System]]: It goes soldier, elite soldier, lieutenant, general (highest combat rank), Seraph.
* [[Fantasy Gun Control]]: Partly because of Heaven's [[Alien Non -Interference Clause]] and partly because most demons are [[Immune to Bullets]] anyway.
* [[Forever War]]: Enforced by the fact that God has forbidden full-on conquest of Hell, which means that the demons will never be completely wiped out.
* [[Four-Star Badass]]: General Balthazar.
