| I've been dying to read Akairo Elegy ever since I read a review of it, so naturally I'm pretty pumped at this news. Its great to see D&Q continuing to publish manga beyond Tatsumi (come of Fatagraphics!). I'm also curious to see what the Guin Saga manga is like. |

This is the last Tatsumi collection that Drawn & Quarterly is planning to publish, correct? I'm really looking forward to it as he seemed to take a good step up in quality from The Push Man and Other Stories (1969 collection) to Abandon the Old in Tokyo (1970 collection). I'd hope that we'd see more progression of him as a cartoonist in the 1971 collection.
I'm also amused that ANN doesn't have a manga entry of Akairo Elegy, but that's not too surprising as there is a great deal not entered in the database...

It either made Kentaro Miura gush with fanboygasms or hate it for deviating from the epic novel series.
And since Vertical is releasing softcover editions, does this mean we can expect them to continue on with the Guin Saga? |
