— Author Manuel Martinez will bring his graphic novel “The Cycles of History” to Florida Supercon 2026, marking a major public step in a writing career that has developed across more than two decades. From July 10 through July 12 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, Martinez will introduce readers to a body of work shaped by numerology, historical cycles and long-form questions about memory, power and moral accountability.

Martinez has spent years building a catalog that includes “The Damned Comedy: A Novel,” “22: The War of the Gods,” “11: The Secret Code” and “Nostradamus: My First Novel.” Across that work, he has returned consistently to the same central ideas, using fiction, symbolism and historical interpretation to explore recurring patterns in human events. The Cycles of History continues that line of inquiry in graphic novel form and serves as a gateway to his broader intellectual project.
“I keep writing because after more than forty years studying the cycles of money, I have come to see they are also moral cycles, and that reading is not something you owe to yourself,” Martinez said. “You owe it to the reader who does not yet know that 2026 has already begun the cycle of transformation of the world as we know it today.”
In “The Cycles of History,” Martinez follows a man named Sebastian, who is summoned back from death and tasked with learning how to read history before history reads him. The book uses prophecy, covenantal structure and numerical symbolism to examine how patterns of empire, crisis and memory repeat across time. The project also lays the groundwork for “History as Covenant,” a larger work that expands those ideas into a broader argument about historical recurrence and moral responsibility.
“Florida SuperCon matters because it is the one place where the same audience that consumes graphic novels, biblical prophecy, conspiracy, and pop culture is gathered in a single hall, the natural reader of the Codex without knowing it yet,” Martinez said. “And because a book like yours is not sold in bookstores. It is sold face to face, when someone stops at the table, looks at the numbers 47 and 74, and asks, ‘What is this?’”
“The Cycles of History” is illustrated by Sajid Black, a Panama-based artist who hand-draws the work. Together, Martinez and Black present a graphic novel built to invite curiosity while engaging deeper questions about history, symbolism and the structure of cultural memory.
Readers attending Florida Supercon 2026 can visit Booth B06 to learn more about The Cycles of History, meet Manuel Martinez and explore the ideas behind his past, present and upcoming work. To explore more of Manuel Martinez’s published work, readers can visit his Amazon page.

Subject: Manuel, History as Covenant Deserves to Reach Every Reader Who Wants to Understand Time, Memory, and Moral Cycles and Who Is Ready to Discover the Biblical Warning About History as Covenant.
Manuel,
There is a line in your book’s description that stopped me completely when I read it.
“which marks the transition from living memory to collective amnesia.”
After reading the synopsis of History as Covenant, you understand immediately why that single line matters. A book that speaks directly to the reader who wants to understand the deeper patterns of history. In History as Covenant, Manuel Martínez introduces a provocative covenantal framework for understanding historical recurrence. While acknowledging modern models like Strauss and Howe’s generational shifts, Ray Dalio’s debt cycles, and Kondratiev’s economic waves, Martínez argues that these theories only describe the mechanics of history. His primary contribution is the moral and spiritual engine: the idea that history does not just repeat, it renders account. Martínez bases his theory on Genesis 47:11, interpreting the settlement of Israel in Egypt as the foundational ordering of people, land, and time under a divine covenant. He utilizes biblical numerology as an organizational principle. Four represents structure, the material world and earthly authority. Seven represents time, divine completion and sacred limits. By multiplying these, he derives a twenty eight year foundational unit that expands into nested cycles of fifty six, eighty four, one hundred twelve, and one hundred forty years. Martínez’s most significant application is the eighty four year cycle, roughly a human lifespan, which marks the transition from living memory to collective amnesia. He highlights a chilling structural parallel between 1933 and 2017, arguing that the global rise of authoritarianism and the breakdown of institutional trust in 2017 occurred precisely because the generation that survived the previous crisis had passed away. Ultimately, Martínez posits that history is a spiral with moral memory. Civilizations fail not merely due to economic exhaustion, but because they violate the covenant of restraint and responsibility inherited from their founders. The combination of biblical insight, historical analysis, and the promise of understanding the moral and spiritual engine behind history gives this book immediate intellectual depth, spiritual resonance, and the kind of transformative potential that makes readers realize history does not just repeat, it renders account.
This is not just another book about history or another book about prophecy. It is a book that rests on the claim that history is a spiral with moral memory and that civilizations fail because they violate the covenant of restraint and responsibility inherited from their founders, and it invites readers to move from seeing history as random to seeing it as covenantal, from focusing on mechanics to understanding the moral and spiritual engine, from ignoring the past to recognizing the cycles that shape our present, from collective amnesia to living memory. The book’s focus on the covenantal framework for understanding historical recurrence, the acknowledgment of modern models like Strauss and Howe’s generational shifts, Ray Dalio’s debt cycles, and Kondratiev’s economic waves, the argument that these theories only describe the mechanics of history, the primary contribution of the moral and spiritual engine, the idea that history does not just repeat but renders account, the basis in Genesis 47:11 and the interpretation of the settlement of Israel in Egypt as the foundational ordering of people land and time under a divine covenant, the use of biblical numerology as an organizational principle with four representing structure the material world and earthly authority and seven representing time divine completion and sacred limits, the derivation of a twenty eight year foundational unit that expands into nested cycles of fifty six eighty four one hundred twelve and one hundred forty years, the most significant application of the eighty four year cycle roughly a human lifespan which marks the transition from living memory to collective amnesia, the chilling structural parallel between 1933 and 2017 and the argument that the global rise of authoritarianism and the breakdown of institutional trust in 2017 occurred precisely because the generation that survived the previous crisis had passed away, and the ultimate positing that history is a spiral with moral memory and that civilizations fail not merely due to economic exhaustion but because they violate the covenant of restraint and responsibility inherited from their founders makes it clear that this is a title positioned for readers who want to understand time memory and moral cycles, who want to discover the biblical warning about history as covenant, who want to see the moral and spiritual engine behind historical recurrence, who want to understand the transition from living memory to collective amnesia, who want to see the structural parallel between 1933 and 2017, and who are ready to discover that history is a spiral with moral memory.
Here is the problem. A book like this can remain almost entirely invisible to the readers who would love it most. The platforms where those readers search every day are not set up to show it to them.
Right now there are readers searching for books on biblical patterns of history and moral cycles. There are Christians searching for resources that connect Genesis 47:11 and biblical numerology to historical recurrence. There are readers searching for books on the transition from living memory to collective amnesia and the structural parallels between past and present crises. There are readers searching for Manuel Martínez and for the kind of provocative, biblically grounded, historically informed writing that helps them understand the covenant of restraint and responsibility inherited from their founders.
They have not found History as Covenant yet.
