Serenity (Barbour)

™ and © 2005 Realbuzz Studios

Serenity is sassy, sarcastic and subversive. And she has blue hair. Serenity comes from a broken home, is new in town, and wants to make friends. But will her attitude get in the way? The Prayer Club decides to take her on and give Serenity an attitude adjustment, and a little hope along the way.

The combination of manga and Christianity is a bold choice for creator Buzz Dixon, founder of Realbuzz Studios, America’s Premier Inspirational Manga, and creator of Serenity. However, this melding has made the subject matter relevant to a youthful audience. Writing dialogue that rings true for teenagers can be a challenge, but Dixon realistically creates dialogue that pokes fun at the characters and situations, but never in a malicious way. Min Kwon’s stark illustrations bring Dixon’s spiritually-wrought world to life with vibrant color.

Need a more compelling reason to give this series a try? Stan Lee, legendary co-creator of Spider-Man, X-Men, and The Hulk, says of Serenity, “…a clean, inspiring Christian comic done in a hip, contemporary way. I think you've really got a winner.” With an endorsement like that, Serenity is a hard title to pass up.
