Preview: Shinjuku

Writer and director Christopher 'mink' Morrison (Dust) and legendary artist Yoshitaka Amano (Final Fantasy, Vampire Hunter D) join forces to craft an unforgettable tale of destiny, danger, and hard-boiled sorcery, featuring over a hundred original paintings by Amano! In the year 2020, bounty hunter Daniel Legend finds himself tracking a quarry of a different kind: his long-lost sister. Armed only with his wits, his gun, and a mysterious postcard, Daniel makes his way to the heart of the seedy Shinjuku district of Tokyo, where a clash between two underworlds-the criminal and the infernal-threatens the very fabric of reality. o Shinjuku marks the first totally original project by Yoshitaka Amano for Dark Horse Books. o Written by filmmaker mink, a rising star from Quentin Tarantino's A Band Apart production company.
