●BOOK● OTOMO THE COMPLETE WORKS 14: AKIRA 3

 


The fourteeth volume of OTOMO THE COMPLETE WORKS features the third volume (out of eight) that will collect the manga AKIRA. This third volume includes episodes 29 to 42 (covering pages 201 of AKIRA vol. 2 through page 167 of  AKIRA vol. 3 )   when  Katsuhiro Otomo was 29-30 years old back in 1984.

When AKIRA was collected in book format for the first time, Otomo gave it a lot of polish; he completed it through additions, corrections, deletions, replacements, rearrangements of pages and frames, he also added finishing touches, new drawings and illustrations. In addition to all that, the title pages of each episodes were also deleted from the book version and they were all collected in the 1995 published book AKIRA CLUB.

This new edition presents AKIRA in the closest way to its original serialization in Kodansha's YOUNG MAGAZINE . In accordance with the purpose of "arranging all of Otomo's works by era and tracing how he has changed as an author," everything, including the title pages, has been restored as much as possible to the way it was when it was serialized for the first time. However, There are some parts where the original illustrations no longer exist, and some parts cannot be restored to the way they were when they were serialized in the magazine because the manuscript was directly edited, but the goal of this new edition is to restore AKIRA to their original state as much as possible, including the original color pages from the serialization, which are all reprinted the same way they were first published in Young Magazine but this time with a pristine printing quality.
