They have no idea what weebs are going to do to the poor mascot.
Rule34 has been in full blast already.
Also some interesting W40k crossover
Dogma vibes
That's just a golden calf with more steps. Little fuckers even yellow. Damned priests need to read their book
Archbishop Finichella says the mascot was inspired by the Church's desire “to live even within the pop culture so beloved by our youth.”
I'm getting strong "how do you do, fellow kids" vibes here.
So much "wait, what?"
I think her name is Lucy but they all call her Luce
