Rauf Tezuka was a legendary comic artist. He created famous mangas like Astro Boy, Kimba the White Lion, Metropolis, etc.


MW (read: Mooo) is about this guy, Yuki. He has a great job as a banker...but by night, he kidnaps and kills people.

15 years ago, Yuuki and this guy Garai (who later became a priest and his gay lover) witnessed a terrible event on Okinomabune island.
During the incident, all the island's residents were killed by a poisonous gas (MW), which leaked from the storage area of foreign military forces on the island.

Yuuki goes mad under the effect of the gas.
That was why he had that dark side.
I think.
Yea.
Sort of.

Long story short, Yuuki finally found out where they kept MW. And he planned to use the toxic gas to wipe out the human race.




Does any of this sound familiar?

Quite like our buddy Ben and the gassing of Dharma....
But this is not listed as a Lost book.. You have read this, and posted it because of its similarities, right? Is it a comic book?

Rauf No, I have not read it 8) Yea, it's a Japanese comic book. It's already translated into English.


I was reading this biography about Tezuka ('cause I just watched Metropolis) and suddenly stumbled into this. Hey, this sounds a lot like The Purge, says I.
