The BATMAN AND THE JUSTICE LEAGUE Manga is Coming The U.S.
If you’re a fan of Shiori Teshirogi, creator of Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas, you may have heard about his manga Batman and the Justice League. It has been running in the monthly Shonen magazine Champion Red in Japan, but it will soon be available for US fans. Here’s the synopsis if you don’t know what it’s about:
“A young boy from Japan travels to Gotham City on a mission. A year before, his two parents—both scientists—were presumably killed in an expolosion that destroyed an experimental power plant. But the boy believes they may still be alive. At the very least, he’s determined to find out what actually happened. But his quest soon leads to a run-in with some powerful forces—forces that require help from both Batman and the Justice League!
Mangaka Shiori Teshirogi (Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas) creates an exciting new story, combining an authentic Japanese comics approach with the World’s Greatest Superheroes. Translated into English and collected for the Western audience for the first time, collected in standard manga size trim, Batman & The Justice League Vol. 1 is phenomenal entry point for fans of the Justice League and manga alike!”
It sounds like it could be really awesome! Vol. 1 will be released in the US October 23, 2018, and you can pre-order it now. The volume will be 208 pages and printed in manga format so you’ll have to read from right to left. Are you going to be picking this manga up?
