Showa Re-Launched With New Covers – Comics Value Studying

Drawn and Quarterly has re-released the 4 volumes of Showa, Shigeru Mizuki’s ridiculously detailed historical past of Japan from 1926-1989, translated by Zack Davisson, with snazzy redesigned covers. As I stated after I beforehand reviewed the primary quantity,

Though intimidating, with its doorstop measurement and historic focus, [it] is surprisingly readable. I discovered it fast-moving, with an inviting mixture of non-public memory and an academic strategy to cultural historical past.

The value has gone up by $5 a e book, however it’s been virtually ten years because the first launch, so bravo for protecting the collection in print.

You may see all the record of works by Mizuki revealed in English by Drawn & Quarterly at their web site.
