Originally planned in the collection Graphic on August 25, the one-shot An assassin in New York of Jiro Taniguchi and Jinpachi Mori will finally be released later than expected at Pika Edition.
Indeed, following a concern for paper supply, the publisher is forced to postpone the publication of the work to October 13.
Recall that with this title initially published between 1991 and 1995 in the Big Comic Original Zôkan by Shôgakukan under the title Benkei in New York, Taniguchi returns to his first love, the thriller looking like a film noir in the right line of Trouble is my Business (Kana).
Synopsis :
Benkei, a mysterious Japanese expatriate with a debonair appearance, settled in New York as a painter. But in the shadow of the skyscrapers, he also made revenge his business. Unearthing the most sordid secrets hidden by his “clients”, this mutic character has no equal when it comes to healing old wounds, contract after contract… Coldly and definitively.
