Green Blood

In the gritty underworld of 19th-century New York, Green Blood (2015–present, Editora JBC) reimagines the classic Western as a Japanese manga-infused crime saga, following the violent clash between Irish immigrants and the corrupt Five Points gangs. Written and illustrated by Masayuki Ishikawa, this five-issue series earned acclaim for its stark, cinematic artwork and morally complex narrative, blending historical fiction with the raw energy of a revenge thriller. A standout in the publisher's catalog, it offers a fresh, transcontinental take on the American frontier through a distinctly manga lens.
