Dark Horse Comics will release The Art of Satoshi Kon, an oversized tribute to the manga-ka and anime director in August.
Kon’s anime films include Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, Tokyo Godfathers, and Paprika, as well as the series Paranoia Agent. His manga include Toriko, Tropic of the Sea, Seraphim, and OPUS, several of which were translated into English after his tragic death from pancreatic cancer in 2010.
The 136-page hardcover includes illustrations from his movies and TV series, his manga, commercial art, and more. The book includes a special appreciate from director Darren Aronofsky (The Wrestler, Black Swan) which celebrates Kon’s life, and discusses several little-known and unfinished projects. MSRP is $29.99.
Dark Horse released Satoshi Kon’s: OPUS last year, and will release his manga collaboration with Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell) Seraphim: 266613336 Wings next week.
In August
