BLACK-BOX

A manga about a genius boxer who’s father and brother are murderers.

I’m a fan of Tsutomu Takahashi‘s amazing artwork and it was great to see it applied to boxing. Takahashi’s use of ink brushes work great with the fluid motions of swinging punches. The story is pretty interesting as well as the protagonist off-kilter personality plays into his notoriety as a member of a “murder family”. I’m interested to read more and follow his career and learn more about his backstory because it’s hinted that he may have been involved in the murder his brother committed.
