I don't think there are any other actual published Christian manga out there besides Serenity. I do know that one of our members here at CAA, Mave, has written a Christian webmanga that is quite good, so you may want to look into that. Other than that, though, I'm not sure. Sorry I wasn't much help! ^_^>>

Radical Dreamer has given you the basic answer. I am rather confident that, as of this post, no other professional Christian manga are available for purchase. However, there are definitely more titles in the works (some of them are rather promising, though I can't say more than that). If you are interested in online comics, you might try the following websites:

Do we have to differentiate between Christian manga or manga drawn by Christians? Because if not, you need to check out Gypsy's Skipping Tomorrows (http://www.hoodiegypsy.com) and be on the lookout for Inkhana's SteelBlood.

Serenity doesn't suck. It's kind of churchy, yes. Well, my little sister likes it at least.

The quality of Serenity is mostly a matter of opinion, and I would urge us not to get into an argument about it and instead part respectfully with our varying opinions.

Personally, I do think the Serenity series is seriously flawed artistically and theologically, but it is definitely getting better. Ultimately, though, it still isn't something I would read for fun (though there is is at a serious disadvantage in the first place).

"Sometimes we don't present the Gospel well enough for the non-elect to reject it."
- John MacArthur

"In the total expanse of the human life, there is not a single square inch of which Christ, who alone is sovereign, does not declare, 'That is mine'."
- Abraham Kuyper

"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."
- Westminister Confession of Faith (Chapter 5, Section 1)

"The wisdom of God has found a way for the love of God to deliver sinners from the wrath of God all the while upholding the righteousness of God!!"
- John Piper

"Grace is the pleasure of God to magnify the worth of God by giving sinners the right and power to delight in God without obscuring the glory of God!"
-John Piper

"The very One from Whom we need to be saved, is the One Who has saved us."
- R.C. Sproul

"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."
- Martin Luther

"I have to tell you first that I am ready to die. I have put my affairs in order. Your supreme weapon is killing. My supreme weapon is dying, because when you kill me, people all over Romania will read my books and believe on the God that I preach - even more than they do now."
- Dr. Joseph Ton, the exiled Romanian pastor (quoted by James Montgomery Boice)

"The best prayer I ever prayed had enough sin in it to condemn the whole world."
- John Bunyan

That is a certainty. Not only has Realbuzz announced six new titles to run in addition to Serenity, Zondervan has declared its intention to create a similar number of series. I obviously reserve judgment on all of them, but my thoughts on the latter ones are mixed. On one hand they are explicitly targeted to children, but on the other they seem to at least have (potentially) non-cheesy premeses. Plus, those appear to be in more ordinary 160-200 page format.
