Product Description

Manga comics, the most popular literary form in Japan and Korea, are the fastest growing genre in British and American publishing. Dynamic, action-based artwork combined with pacy, emotional storytelling in a style particularly popular amongst teens and young adults.

Many years in the making, The Manga Bible will be a publishing phenomenon. Artist Siku, one of the UK's hottest comic talents, has brought his distinctive, edgy style to the world's all-time best-selling book. The Manga Bible is a faithful adaptation of the Bible, injected with new energy by Siku's beautiful and dramatic artwork.

The Manga Bible - NT Raw contains the New Testament plus brief features such as 'Introducing the New Testament', 'What is Manga?', an interview with Siku and sketches from his preliminary work on the project.

Also available: The Manga Bible - NT Extreme, which also contains the the full text of the New Testament from the TNIV translation of the Bible.

The complete Manga Bible, including the Old Testament, will be available later in the year.

Customer Reviews

Stunning Bible Adaptation!
Wow! This has to be one of the best ways into the Bible I've ever come across: stunning artwork, powerful storyline summarising the Gospels, Acts and some of Paul's letters plus an amazing 4-page rendition of Revelation. Truly excellent: Jesus and the disciples as you've never met them before.

If you don't like the script because it doesn't follow the Bible closely enough for you, check out the deluxe edition, Manga Bible NT-Extreme, which includes the full text of the New Testament from the TNIV.

Don't miss it!

Really good
have to be honest being agnostic i had no intention in reading the bible so this was a great way to have the basics told to me. the art is ok in some places a bit rushed but its a fine original bit of work im glad its available.
