The Story

Mild-mannered librarian Josiah King is just trying to survive an ordinary day — until a computer explosion sends him diving for cover in a room full of Bibles. Reading God’s Word for the first time (and with the help of some mysterious radioactive fumes), Josiah is transformed into a superhero: Captain Absolutely. Now he must battle colorful villains with twisted worldviews and defend God’s truth in a world that has lost its moral compass.
