Two 2018 Eisner Awards were won! Reprinted and back in stock for a little while!
A brand-new, comprehensive 35th anniversary hardcover box set with the original Japanese artwork and the first-ever right-to-left reading format for one of the most well-known and significant comics ever! Six exquisite hardback volumes of the science fiction epic that revolutionized manga and anime are available, together with a hardcover Akira Club art book and a unique patch featuring the recognizable pill design.The first chapter of Kodansha's dystopian saga Akira was published in 1982. The story takes place in Neo-Tokyo, a city recovering from a thermonuclear attack, where motorcycle gangs have taken over the streets and the wealthy and powerful conduct risky experiments on uncontrollable, destructive supernatural powers. Akira's influence left the manga realm and entered the international arena in 1988 when the manga was turned into the most costly animated picture ever produced. It still has the same savage effect and narrative intensity as when Otomo first released it, making it a benchmark for artists, authors, filmmakers, and fans today.
