Since the original TASCHEN edition of Manga Design- Japan's comic phenomenon has produced yet more captivating characters and a whole host of hot new talents. This revised edition delivers the lowdown on the latest and the greatest makers and shapers of the manga scene. Through an A-Z directory- we discover the superstars-both human and fictional-of what is now a vast global industry- inspiring advertisers- filmmakers- creative professionals- millions of avid fans- not to mention an entire cosplay lifestyle- in which manga devotees in elaborate costume meet to celebrate the existence of their characters at huge conventions from Los Angeles to Leipzig. From classic maestros-like Osamu Tezuka (creator of Astro Boy) and Katsuhiro Otomo (creator of Akira)-to newcomers such as Hajime Isayama- each entry includes biographical and bibliographical information- descriptions of main characters- and- of course- plenty of examples of the artist's finest manga spreads and covers.
