Riassunto

Brilliant anime director Satoshi Kon (Paprika, Paranoia Agent, Tokyo Godfathers, Millennium Actress, Perfect Blue) died tragically young in 2010 at the age of 46. Before he became a director, he was a manga artist, and Dark Horse is honored to remember Kon with the release of Satoshi Kon's OPUS, an omnibus collection of a two-volume manga from 1996, created by Kon on the eve of his first film.

OPUS contains the mastery of both realism and surrealism that would make Kon famous in Perfect Blue, as a manga artist becomes drawn into his own work and realizes the deadline he's up against is to stop a vicious serial killer before he can spill more innocent blood--not merely ink!

Su questo libro

Recensione:

'Originally created in the mid-1990s, Opus is one of his works; a complex piece whose subject is the manga itself...this is a very clever piece of work; a meta-manga exploring how a storyteller interacts with his own characters.' - --NEO

'Opus is a mind-blowing meta-manga by award-winning animation director Satoshi Kon...Kon comes up with some dazzling and sometime wacky interpretations of living inside the manga you have created.' - --Opus was Paul Gravett's no. 1 Manga of 2014
