About the series
In the late 2000s, Hokuto no Ken - Fist of the North Star returned to its roots with an 11-issue manga revival published in Asuka, faithfully adapting the iconic post-apocalyptic martial arts saga. This series focuses on Kenshiro, the successor of the deadly Hokuto Shinken style, as he battles tyrannical warlords across a desolate wasteland. While the core story remains true to the original 1980s epic by Buronson and Tetsuo Hara, this edition brings a fresh visual presentation for a new generation of readers. It stands as a compact, modern entry point into one of manga's most influential action series.
