Illustrated Gnostic Myths

God is the Devil, the Earth is Hell, Humans are hypnotized angels! Our award-winning Cartoon Guide to Gnostic Myth and Magic tells the epic story of the Gnostic religions from the Creation through the Apocalypse.

  • Alien God + the Aeons

    Beyond space, time and matter, the alien god sleeps, submerged in an endless, shimmering pool. A ripple echoes across the timeless waters, the goddess Barbelo emerges, and together they conceive a child - Immortal Androgynous man, the primal First Human. As two beings in one, Immortal man acts as both Christ (the Son) and Sophia (the Holy Ghost) to sow and fertilize the Infinite Aeons - an infinite set of possible worlds, extending forever in every direction.

  • Genesis of the Demiurge

    Sophia drew a veil around infinity and her veil cast a shadow outside it. From the depths of darkness arose Yaldabaoth, the blind, foolish Demiurge. Declaring himself "God", Yaldabaoth fled the divine realms and used some of his stolen fire to build a prison planet called "Earth." He created seven heavens like invisible cosmic cages and populated them with sinister fallen angels called "Rulers."

  • Archons + Aliens in Eden

    Yaldabaoth and the Rulers wanted to create an obedient species of primate slaves so they conducted a series of bizarre experiments, cloning Adam, raping Eve and implanting both with false memories.

  • Forbidden Fruit of Gnosis

    Sophia took pity on the first humans and sent the serpent to teach them how to rebel; provoked to curiousity, they ate from the Tree of Knowledge and discovered that their "creators" were monstrous parasites.

  • Noah + the Nephilim

    Adam and Eve's descendants refused to worship Yaldabaoth, so the Rulers decided to drown humanity in a flood. Noah was chosen to save those loyal to Yaldabaoth; Eve's daughter Norea set Noah's ark on fire and escaped when the Rulers tried to rape her. The Rulers descended to the Earth to impregnate the survivors, smash the Tower of Babel, and give Moses the 10 Commandments.
