The Trigun sensation is sweeping America! With its conflicted characters, frantic action, offbeat humor, and a style that defies age barriers, Trigun has dominated the world of anime and manga.
This February, Dark Horse is giving fans the best of both worlds with the 25-cent, 24-page comic, Wolfwood. An introduction to the second volume of the Trigun anime manga series, this comic will bridge the gap between manga and anime, two of the biggest phenomena in American popular culture.
This special introductory issue will also be an excellent outreach tool for comic shops looking to attract young fans to their stores and can serve as a promotional item at movie theaters, video stores, and local anime shows. Because the comic is based on digital grabs of the mega popular anime, it should be an excellent gateway from the anime medium to the world of manga.
This 25-cent, right-to-left reading comic centers on Wolfwood, one of the two most prominent characters in Trigun and Vash the Stampede’s foil. With his negative view of humanity and gigantic cross-like gun, Wolfwood the fighting priest is far from docile.
Will Wolfwood ever understand Vash’s desire to never kill another human? Will he be able to protect our red-coated hero from getting himself killed? Wolfwood asks the questions that will be answered in Volume 2 of Dark Horse’s Trigun anime manga series, coming February 23.
Trigun anime manga Wolfwood is available February 9 for 25 cents! Edited by Tim Ervin.
