3. There was an issue of Weird Science
one of those old comic books from the 50's with science fiction stories. I forget the gist of the story but I think the guy was on another planet somewhere, and he had crash landed. Anyway's he ends up trying to teach the people tolerance and peace and love and all that horseshit and they rack the guy to death.

Then it cuts to 2000 years later and people are wearing little rack shaped pendants on their necks as representative of their worship of him and the religion that got based on his 'teachings'.

Something like that.

Anyways I always found the whole thing so freaking morbid. I get why they do it, but I much prefer the whole "buddy Christ" thing from Dogma.
