クレヨンしんちゃん [Kureyon Shin-chan / Crayon Shin-chan] #1

Volume 1 of Yoshito Usui's beloved Crayon Shin-chan opens with the most fitting of cover images: Shin-chan's oversized, expressive face filling the foreground with a characteristic sideways glance, his thick brows furrowed in that perfectly mischievous look, while a small figure in purple pants tumbles comically through the air above him. Published under Futabasha's Action Comics imprint, this is where readers first meet the pint-sized troublemaker from Kasukabe whose deadpan antics and cheerful irreverence made him one of manga's most enduring personalities.
