Manga Classics: The Jungle Book

Manga Classics: The Jungle Book (2017–present) from Udon Comics adapts Rudyard Kipling’s classic tales into a single-issue manga-style graphic novel, rendered by artist Julien Choy and writer Crystal S. Chan. This entry in the Manga Classics line brings the story of Mowgli and his animal companions to a new audience through Choy’s expressive, panel-driven artwork. It’s a compact, accessible introduction to Kipling’s world, blending the original narrative with the visual storytelling conventions of manga.
