A paperback book series written from 1979 to the present day, ''Casca'' is a [[WanderingJew Wandering Jew]] series about Casey Romain, AKA Casca Rufio Longinius, AKA...the list goes on. While initially written by Barry Salder (of "Ballad of the Green Berets" fame), ghostwriters took up the job in the late '80s. After Sadler's death in 1989, other authors have written the rest, the most notable being Tony Roberts.

While the first book starts during [[VietnamWar the Vietnam War]], the series chronologically begins in Jerusalem, 30-something A.D. After Pontius Pilate hands Jesus over to the Jews, Casca Rufio Longinius is tasked with crucifying him. However, when Casca spears Jesus in the side "just to make sure", Jesus turns about to be [[NotQuiteDead less dead than the Bible would have you believe]]. Jesus then announces "Soldier, if you are content with what you are, then that is what you shall remain. As I return to my Father, so you shall return to me". Casca is then [[WanderingJew cursed to walk the earth]] until Jesus' second coming. What happens after that depends on his behavior, but judging by his behavior...who knows?
