Bibleman is an American, Christian direct-to-video children's series created by Willie Aames that ran from 1995 to 2010 with the goal of influencing young children into practicing Christianity. The series centers around an evangelical superhero who fights evil and quotes scripture. The show had three incarnations: The Bibleman Show, The Bibleman Adventure, and Bibleman: Powersource. The series' titular character is played by Willie Aames (from 1995 to 2002) and then by Robert T. Schlipp (from 2003 to 2010). Originally owned by Pamplin Entertainment then sold to Tommy Nelson, the series is currently owned by B&H Kids. It is now being re-launched in animated format in 2016.
