Manga artist Torajiro Kishi (Maka-Maka
) and blockbuster anime studio Madhouse (Trigun
, Paprika
, Ninja Scroll
) love comics. So much so that they've decided to publish an original, Western-style comic exclusively with Dark Horse! Enter Devil, a thrilling, sci-fi take on the vampire genre.A virus is raging across the planet, turning people into bloodsucking superhumans referred to as "Devils." Most victims die within days, sometimes months, but there's a new strain, a new class of Devil that threatens to overtake mankind with power and bloodthirst. This new class of Devils derive from an experiment to clone a virus victim, and it looks like science has created a true monster this time. Can Takimoto and the Devil Investigation Section of the Tokyo police force stop this societal scourge? We'll just have to see.
This isn't a reprint from Japan, but an original left-to-right comic they're doing specifically for an American audience (they like us! they REALLY LIKE us), published through our friends at Dark Horse! click here to peep a free 5 page preview of Devil #1, then swing by your comic shop on February 17th to purchase a copy!
