About the series
Based on the hit anime, this Viz-published comic adaptation ran for seven issues from 1998 to 2003, offering a faithful translation of the series' iconic story. It follows the emotional and apocalyptic struggles of young pilots controlling massive bio-mecha called Evangelions to defend a post-apocalyptic Tokyo-3 against mysterious, monstrous Angels. This edition collects the work of creator Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, whose detailed art and character design helped define the series' haunting, introspective tone. For fans, it remains a key artifact of the franchise's initial North American print debut.
