Barney Bear Sunday School Picnic

Al Hartley—best known for his wholesome Archie Comics work—wrote and drew this one-shot comic from Barbour Publishing, part of a wave of explicitly Christian-themed comics in the early 1990s. The issue presents a simple Sunday school outing starring Barney Bear, a gentle, faith-based character created for this religious niche. While brief, it's a clear artifact of a publisher aiming to bring Bible-friendly entertainment to young readers in a comic format.
