Toshin Devil Man

[Machine Translation] The ultimate hero with the power of evil and the heart of justice appears! Akira Fudo? No, it's Kei Kamishiro = Devilman! Everyone is familiar with Go Nagai's masterpiece "Devilman". There are various comic adaptation works, but this work is a manga serialized in the November 1998 - May 1999 issue of Comic Bonbon (Kodansha), drawn by Yoshihiro Iwamoto, who is well known for "Mega Man X." It is a "hot-blooded hero" manga for boys. In the original story, Akira Fudo merges with Amon, a hero of the Demon Tribe, and Akira takes over Amon's spirit, but this work is a parallel universe to the original story, in which Amon, a hero, empowers Kei Kamishiro, a 15-year-old boy, and their interaction leads to a deadly battle against the Demon Tribe. The story unfolds in such a way that the two interact and fight to the death against the demon tribe. And the shocking end...? At the time of its serialization, it was announced that a book version of this work, which has a different appeal from the original, would be published in book form, but for various reasons it was never released. Now, 18 years later, it has finally been published in book form for the first time! This is a legendary work long-awaited by fans, so please take this opportunity!

悪の力(パワー)と正義の心(ハート)をもつ究極のヒーロー出現! 不動明? いいや、神代慶=デビルマンだ!! 誰もがご存知の永井豪の代表作『デビルマン』。コミカライズ作品はいろいろありますが、本作品は「コミックボンボン」(講談社)1998年11月号～1999年5月号に連載されたマンガで『ロックマンX』でおなじみの岩本佳浩の作画による、少年マンガ王道"熱血ヒーローもの"に仕上がっています。原作では不動明にデーモン族の勇者アモンが合体し、アモンの精神を明が乗っ取る、といった設定ですが、本作は原作とは別の、いわばパラレルワールド的な内容で、15歳の少年・神代慶に共感した勇者アモンが力を与える、といった2人の交流を主軸にデーモン族との死闘を繰り広げる、といった展開です。そして衝撃のラストは…? 原作とは違った魅力を放つ本作品は連載終了当時、単行本化が予告されていましたが、諸事情により未発売となりました。今回18年の時を経て、ついに初単行本化! ファン待望の伝説的な作品ですので、この機会に是非!!
