About the series
Over eleven issues from 2005 to 2008, DC's Tower of the Future offered a distinctive blend of manga-influenced storytelling and Western superhero sensibilities, largely driven by writer-artist Saki Hiwatari alongside fellow writers Tim Rogers and Glenn Rich, with art also by Minako Narita. The series carved out a quiet, cult niche for its atmospheric, character-focused narrative, standing as a notable example of DC's early-2000s experiments with cross-cultural creative talent.
