New Port Richey, Florida Sep 8, 2025 (Issuewire.com) Multimedia creator and writer David Cole has released the first book in his ambitious, ongoing comic-book series, The Lion of God. Fusing biblical mythology, esoteric philosophy, and vividly imagined worlds, the series follows a deeply personal yet cosmic journeyone that will unfold across multiple volumes, each expanding its mythos and narrative scope.
Told in the first person, The Lion of God places Cole himself at the heart of the story. Within the physical and astral realms, he discovers his true form as the Archangel Samael, a figure rooted in sacred scripture and mystic traditions. Known for shutting the mouths of lions, as recorded in Hebrews 11:33 and Daniel 6:22, and revered or feared for his role as the Angel of Divine Judgment, Samaels complex dual nature as protector and judge becomes the central axis of the tale. Cole draws on his own personal encounters, as well as Kabbalistic sources, biblical references, and the writings of Samael Aun Weor, to craft a layered portrayal of this powerful being.
From the very beginning, readers encounter a cast of unforgettable figures whose fates are intertwined with Samaels. Sarah, Coles wife, appears briefly in the opening volume but will rise to prominence in later installments. In the ethereal realm of Caer Dathyl dwell the Children of the Ents, gentle nature spirits whose peace is shattered by the threat of war. The Swamp Demon, a formidable adversary, emerges during this conflict, drawing Samael into a battle that is as moral as it is mystical. The Goddess Lilith, reimagined not as a figure of villainy but as Samaels Cosmic Twin and equal, has been separated from him since ancient Atlantis. Her journey and theirs together form one of the emotional cores of the series. Adding yet another layer is the Arcturian, a being from another reality whose cryptic messages prepare Cole for the trials ahead.
The first book marks the beginning of a saga designed for long-term exploration. Future volumes will delve deeper into Samaels history, the enduring bond between him and Lilith, and the far-reaching conflicts that shape their destinies. Each installment will broaden the universe while preserving the intimate, first-person voice that sets The Lion of God apart from other works in the genre.
