Get Backers

In the early 2000s, Egmont Ehapa brought the popular Japanese manga Get Backers to German readers, running for 39 issues from 2004 to 2013. The series follows the high-stakes exploits of a pair of "retrievers" who will recover anything—for a price. Known for its stylish action and supernatural flair, this translation introduced a wide German audience to the dynamic partnership of its two leads, making it a notable entry in the publisher's manga lineup of the era.
