Tomoe #2

Tomoe #2 (1996, Crusade Comics) opens with a vivid prologue tracing the ancient roots of Nara, Japan’s first permanent capital, and the secretive society born from its legacy—setting the stage for the miniseries’ unfolding mystery. Written by Gary Cohn and illustrated by a collaborative team including Mada Design, Inc., Aungyi Maung, John Semprit, Marie Coons, and Tony Gagnon, the issue blends historical depth with striking visuals, with colors by Brian Wong, Mada Design, Inc., Aungyi Maung, John Semprit, Gotham Imaging, and Tony Gagnon, and letters by Dennis Heisler. The cover by Conner completes the atmospheric presentation.
