Gabriel and the Guardians Vol. 1

From Angel Studios and Colossul Studios comes Gabriel and the Guardians―a fantasy manga inspired by the Dead Sea Scrolls and starring an all-star anime voice cast led by Johnny Yong Bosch (Trigun, Bleach, Power Rangers). Now in print through RippaSend.

Gabriel is a Celestial Guardian tasked with protecting the Tree Eternal. Gabriel and the Guardians Vol. 1 is the manga adaptation of the breakout Angel Studios animated series―a 22-episode fantasy epic inspired by ancient Hebrew text and built for the global manga audience. The anime cast―Johnny Yong Bosch, Cristina Vee (Sailor Moon, Miraculous), Matt Lanter (Star Wars: The Clone Wars), James Arnold Taylor (Star Wars, Final Fantasy X), and Cristina Milizia―brings the world to the page with the same anime sensibility that defined the series.

Co-created by Jason Moody, Sarah Moody, Al Moore, and David Cunningham (Colossul Studios), and produced through the same creative team that built the animated series. The first print volume of the franchise and a Rippaverse Publishing exclusive through the RippaSend imprint―for the anime's global audience, the first chance to own Gabriel's story in print. Interior art by Mary Kimiko. B&W manga format. Anime distributed worldwide by Toonz Media Group.
