OTOMO KATSUHIRO THE COMPLETE WORKS Collection 5 Fire Ball Art Book AKIRA Author 

F/S   W/Tracking

A collection of 12 short comics created by Katsuhiro Otomo from 1978 to 1979 when he was 24 or 25 years old, in the order of publication. The following year, in 1980, on the eve of the author's talent becoming known to the world as he began to publish ``Domu'' and ``Kuki Momo War'', his numerous short stories, which were becoming more and more complete, changed their taste with each work. Forms amazing polyhedra. In particular, the title work ``Fire-Ball'' is an important work in which the author, who had previously focused on realistic human dramas, opened his eyes to the new genre of science fiction. The depiction of ``superpowers'' that was directly connected to the later ``Domu'' and ``Akira,'' and the magnificent spectacle that completely changed his style, became a milestone for the author. The included works include 2 from ``Short Piece'' (1979/Kisotengaisha), 4 from ``Highway Star'' (1979/Futabasha), and 3 from ``GOOD WEATHER'' (1981/Kitansha). 2 volumes, including the title story, from ``With Her Thoughts...'' (1990/Kodansha). In addition, the long-awaited short story "Distant Festival", which has not been included until now, is included in the long-awaited first book. 

In addition, all colored manuscripts that were previously printed in monochrome in short story collections have been completely reprinted in color. A perfect edition with explanations by the author himself that are worth reading!
