GET BACKERS GN VOL 14 (OF 37) (MR)

TOKYOPOP
FEB063296
(W) Yuya Aoki (A/CA) Rando Ayamine
  Now that their fights are over, Ginji and Ban head over to the auction to retrieve the Venus de Milo.  With a ploy nothing short of typical for this team, the GetBackers escape with their prize.  But, alas, there is never enough cash to go around, so the GetBackers quickly take up a job to retrieve a diamond ring from a hot spring...where the duo battles feral monkeys!  If that wasn't enough to drive Ban and Ginji bananas, they are pulled onto a case involving missing children and a strange card game.  
        Key Selling Points:  
  • A consistent bestseller, according to BookScan
  • Title has a successful anime series on DVD in the U.S.
  • Cowboy Bebop meets GTO
    Blurbs:  
  • The nice and detailed art with clean, sharp inking and a dynamic layout is reminiscent of Tohru Fujisawa of GTO (no wonder:  Rando was Fujisawa's assistant). Humor and intrigue make this sophisticated fighting manga quite original.  It's a pleasure reading this funky duo's exploits that are different and more violent than their animated adaptation.  
    - Protoculture Addicts
  • "There's more than one way for manga fans to be shocked.  Perhaps they can be taken aback by some saucy language, or perhaps their bodies can be blown to smithereens by thousands of volts of electricity!  With GetBackers, it's your choice.  Writer Yuya Aoki and artist Rando Ayamine's Japanese manga and anime hit has been denied from American audiences for too long, and even though the 49-episode anime run isn't licensed, TOKYOPOP is bringing the manga tale of two broke yet super-powered kids to the U.S. beginning this February."
