A disturbingly realistic science-fiction horror epic, Hiroya Oku's Gantz took Japan by storm, spawning an anime series, live action films, and video games. Shocking and explicitly adult, Gantz is not for the kids or the squeamish! Over 650 pages of carnage and craziness!
Ordinary Tokyo citizens resurrected from death by a mysterious black orb, the Gantz team is conscripted to fight bizarre, deadly aliens in a game that promises release from the game...or oblivion. But the game's purpose is unclear, and the stakes are far greater than survival!
Hiroya Oku is a manga artist who is the creator of Gantz, Zero One, and HEN, all of which have been serialized in Young Jump magazine. His manga often contain explicit violence and gore, as well as sexual situations. He won the second prize of the Youth Manga Awards in 1988, under the pen name Yahiro Kuon. He also designed a character for Bandai Namco's Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 fighting game Soulcalibur IV, named "Shura." The author lives in Tokyo, Japan.
What do you get when you mix a terrible dancer, a content creator and a chronic farter – you guessed it, Matty J. Many moons ago, he was thrust into the world of reality TV as Australia’s most desired bachelor (a title he likes to remind people of at any opportunity), but now he’s married, has two kids, a few more reality TV shows under his belt and a plethora of terrible dad jokes at his disposal. When he’s not wrangling his girls, Marlie-Mae or Lola, or spending hours slaving over his next kids' book, Matty J spends his time dreaming of manicured lawns or walking his three-legged dog, Buster.
