MW

Osamu Tezuka's chilling thriller MW follows a young man who, after being exposed to a deadly chemical weapon, embarks on a path of ruthless manipulation and violence. Originally serialized in the late 1970s, this single-volume edition from Vertical brings Tezuka's dark, morally complex story to English readers for the first time, translated by Camellia Nieh. A stark departure from the creator's more whimsical works, MW stands as a potent example of Tezuka's mastery of tense, psychological drama.
