The two hottest genres in comics gleefully collide headon, as the most beloved American superhero gets the coolest Japanese manga makeover ever.In 1966, during the height of the first Batman craze, a weekly Japanese manga anthology for boys, Shonen King, licensed the rights to commission its own Batman and Robin stories. A year later, the stories stopped. They were never collected in Japan, and never translated into English. Now, in this gorgeously produced book, hundreds of pages of Batmanmanga comics more than four decades old are translated for the first time, appearing alongside stunning photographs of the worlds most comprehensive collection of vintage Japanese Batman toys.This is The Dynamic Duo as youve never seen them: with a distinctly Japanese, atomicage twist as they battle aliens, mutated dinosaurs, and villains who wont stay dead. And as a bonus: Jiro Kuwata, the manga master who originally wrote and drew this material, has given an exclusive interview for our book.More than just a dazzling novelty, BatManga! is an invaluable, longlost chapter in the history of one of the most beloved and timeless figures in comics.
