Paperback Edition (1st Edition)
"The Thirty Six" is a super-hero take on an actual Kabbalistic legend which says there are thirty six people destined to save the world. The trouble is, no one can agree on it means to "save the world." The story focuses on Noam, the man destined to find and shepherd these people to their destiny -- whatever that is. His burden is to carry and wield the Staff of Moses.
Thematically, the story pulls from that old-skool mythology. It's a world of magical realism where golems and Leviathan are real and thirty-six people each have a unique "superpower," like the ability to talk to animals or shooting electricity. The fun of the world is the ambiguity and doubt that these people face in figuring out what exactly their "destiny" is supposed to be.
