Missions, literature ministries, and Christian nationals can reach these huge, ready-made audiences in The 10/40 Window with COMICS.
COMICS can be produced (or adapted) locally to fit specific people groups or age groups...
COMICS are excellent outreach and teaching tools, communicating Gospel truths with the uniquely understandable "one-two" combination of graphics and text...
COMICS are an ideal "lo-tech" ministry tool - accessible, portable, reviewable - and relatively inexpensive when compared with other forms of media outreach.
In most areas of The 10/40 Window, to omit COMICS from a ministry outreach strategy is to overlook the most popular street-level literature read by the masses.

* What is The 10/40 Window?
3.1 billion people, 37 of the world's 50 least evangelized countries, and 95% of unreached people groups (with no nationally led, viable, reproducing church) are located in an area of the world called The 10/40 Window, which extends from West Africa to East Asia, from 10 degrees north to 40 degrees north of the equator. Often called "The Resistant Belt", this region encompasses the majority (2.7 billion) of the world's Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists. It also includes the 1.2 billion inhabitants of China, an area of huge need and strategic value. Two-thirds of those in The 10/40 window - two billion people - have never heard of Jesus Christ, at least not as Savior.
