Manga Bible, Graphic Novels, 7 Books Retail Price: $48.93 CBD Price: $39.99
( In Stock )
Names, Games, and the Long Road Trip: The Bible and comedy - usually these two either are kept at arm's length from each other or are part of an attack on the Scriptures. But now, with the Manga Bible, both come together in a fun, entertaining and respectful (although comical) way. Covering major events in the first two books of the Bible, learn and laugh your way through the familiar stories of the creation, Noah's ark, Abraham, Joseph and Moses, among others. The story and art are by professional Korean veterans of manga (or, more appropriately, manwha, which is manga produced in Korea), with English translations throughout to recapture the humor as originally intended.
Walls, Brawls, and the Great Rebellion: At a breakneck pace, this volume covers the myriad stories in Numbers, Joshua, Judges and Ruth. It begins with the last days of Moses and the installation of Joshua as Israel's leader and moves through Joshua's campaigns and conquest of the Holy Land, through many of the judges (Othniel, Ehud, Shamgar, Deborah, Gideon, Jephthah, Samson) and the Benjamite rebellion, and ends with the story of Ruth.
Fights, Flights, and the Chosen Ones: You'd think King Saul would thank David for toppling Israel's biggest enemy! Instead he puts him on the run. Then when David assumes the throne, his own kids plunge Israel into civil war! Your 8- to 12-year-olds will love this manga-style presentation of the heroic and tragic battles---and leaders---of 1 and 2 Samuel.
Traitors, Kings, and the Big Break: The history of King David's last days, Solomon's reign, and the prophets Elijah and Elisha are intriguing and exciting parts of the Bible, and the MangaBible team puts a comedic twist on them. More of a modern visual commentary on the text than a faithful adaptation, anachronisms (binoculars in ancient Israel?) and modern slang (is "Don't have a cow" in the Bible?) are used to convey the stories to 21st century audiences to both facilitate understanding of the larger the story and to encourage the reading of the actual scriptures.
Prophets, Captives, and the Kingdom Rebuilt: Kings, prophets, captivity, return from captivity, and even a beauty pageant! This fifth volume of the Manga Bible takes you from the middle of Second Kings through a handful of the prophetic books, Esther, Ezra and Nehemiah. Daniel's date with the lions, Jonah's long weekend inside a sea monster, Hosea's prophetic marriage, and Jeremiah's interesting object lessons are all given a comedic twist without losing the main point of the text.
Parables, Miracles, and the Prince of Peace: In the sixth volume of the Manga Bible, we begin to cover the New Testament with the story of Jesus. Readers follow the life of Jesus from the announcement of his coming by the angel Gabriel, to his baptism, the calling of his apostles, and through a large part of his earthly ministry.
Death, Resurrection, and The Great Commission: NOT EVEN DEATH CAN STOP THE POWER OF JESUS! The pressure's on as the religious establishment tries to clamp down on Jesus to stop his growing popularity. They even entice one disciple to betray the Messiah - to the death! But when the grave can't hold him, Jesus entrusts the fisherman Peter and the scholar Paul to lead the ongoing mission as the story of God's great work moves back to Jerusalem, up to heaven, and out to the world.

Space Cadet vs. Drama Queen Serenity Manga Series #7 Realbuzz Studios Retail Price: $10.99 CBD Price: $0.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt In a world where the motion picture industry is, to put it mildly, unfriendly towards Christian worldviews and sensibilities, what recourse do teenagers have for large-scale entertainment? How about making your own movie? Serenity and her friends are back, and larger than life, as they attempt the seemingly impossible - to make movies that aren't cliche, predictable or just plain inappropriate for kids their age. But the story behind the making of the movie could halt production in its tracks, as the star (Serenity, naturally) has some deep questions that she wants to ask her mom, another actress might be grounded because of her costume, and the director has doubts about whether he has what it takes to pull this off.
The movie (actually the second half of the book) is a science-fiction thriller called 'The Terror from the Tarantula Nebula', and features the kids in roles and situations that you might never have foreseen - Derek as the space captain? Sally as the alien princess?? Serenity and Kimberly teaming up??? There's lots of fun, excitement and drama in real life as well as in 'reel' life as the friends face multiple hurdles that may affect the completion of their project.Recommended for ages 14 and up.

Girl Overboard, Serenity Manga Series #10 Realbuzz Studios Retail Price: $10.99 CBD Price: $0.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt The most important decision of her life behind her, Serenity now must attempt to assimilate what she knows about Christianity and apply it to her life. But without practical guidance, she starts to overcompensate, causing many jaws to drop. Meanwhile, Kimberly starts to overcompensate the other way in her attempts to keep Derek interested in her and not the "new and improved" Serenity. Both girls need to stay on the straight and narrow way, and, with help from their friends and family, they have a great chance of avoiding the ditches on either side of it.
The movie (actually the second half of the book) is an homage to old horror flicks called 'Fraulein Stein's Monster', starring Kimberly as Miss Stein and Serenity as her monster. Obsessed with creating life by unnatural means, Miss Stein makes a pact with a lecherous and unorthodox scientist to gain his secrets. But what is the truth behind the creation of her monster that may haunt Miss Stein for the rest of her life?Recommended for ages 14 and up.

Choosing Change, Serenity Manga Series #9 Realbuzz Studios Retail Price: $10.99 CBD Price: $0.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt Her obsession with Derek is pushing Serenity to the breaking point, so she does what anyone would do - she sets up a date with another boy. Eddie is the lucky (?) guy, but he's struggling with the same issues, and not always winning the war. Can all their expectations for their night out be unrealized and yet be a success? Even though she's still confused about many things, her friends are still accommodating to her journey of faith...which just might come to an end after she tells them all about the depth of her confusion!
The movie (actually the second half of the book) is a biblical epic called 'Esther, Queen of Persia', with Serenity in the feature role. Based loosely on the first half of the Old Testament story of Esther, recently deposed Queen Vashti (played by Kimberly) tries to end the reign of newly chosen Queen Esther. Can Esther stay true to her Jewish roots while living in the courts of a pagan king? Recommended for ages 14 and up.

The Manga Bible Siku Retail Price: $14.99 CBD Price: $9.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt Acclaimed British artist Siku turns his pen towards the Bible, taking up the task of a full presentation of the story of the Bible. Using the modern British style of art that is very reminiscent to manga, Siku covers many high points - and low points - of the Old Testament in narrative form while letting a few shorter parts (Ruth, Jonah, and Psalm 18) punctuate the general flow. The New Testament focuses heavily on the Gospels (with 4 one-page parables) before a giving a treatment of the Acts of the Apostles, with some accompanying text from the epistles. A brief version of Revelation concludes the book.
The stated intention of The Manga Bible is to inspire the reader to study the actual Bible texts, and to help in this mission non-invasive boxes on many pages point the reader to Bible verses where the full story can be found. Many modern elements are used, such as slang, stylized visuals and humor, to shift emphasis off of the non-nuanced scriptural dialogue. This version of The Manga Bible also contains commentary on key scenes, a sketch gallery and an article on the importance of scripture.
