Big Manga Nerd

oh yeahhh, years ago. Certainly something I should revisit.

the art on the book is fantastic.

2001 knights creator Yukinobu Hoshino also did a series, i’m just reading about called The blue hole

  “about the discovery of a gateway in time and space deep underwater which allows for travel between the present day and the age of the dinosaurs. Its title in France is Le Trou Bleu. It was serialized in Mister Magazine from 1991 to 1992 with two tankōbon published“

also there’s a review of his artbook here that looks really cool

Apparently, from 2014 to 2017 a number of artists from all over the world recreated the Manga Akira with characters from The Simpsons and called it “Bartkira”

and this wasn’t just some “ha ha look at this funny thing” oneshot…

they recreated all 6 volumes with 300-400 pages each  

Bart is Kaneda, Millhouse is Tetsuo and Akira… well Ralph is Akira…

I wish I was making this up… 

Is this the rumored American Akira remake? We’ll never know…
