Akira #1

Apr 1999 · Glénat

Katsuhiro Otomo's landmark manga arrives in this Glénat edition, with a cover that plunges you straight into a rain-soaked, blood-red scene of wreckage and tension — a young man in a striped shirt stands defiantly with a pistol raised while figures sprawl among the debris of what looks like a catastrophic crash. The raw energy and meticulous detail of Otomo's art make even this single image feel like a world on the edge of collapse. A compelling entry point to one of manga's most ambitious visions, published here in 1999 by Glénat.
