Rumic World Trilogy, Volume 1 by Rumiko Takahashi
Before there was Ranma 1/2, even before Lum Urusei Yatsura, there was Rumic World. These collections represent a treasure trove of 12 self-contained episodes which, originally printed separately, are long out of print. Vintage Takahashi, these stories are based on the humor inherent in everyday domestic situations -- but, true to form, her highly original wit means readers should expect the unexpected. This landmark collection, ranging from macabre to heartwarming to offbeat, will appeal to any Takahashi fan, as well as introduce the uninitiated to the broad range of this manga master's work.
-- These 12 early stories are collected here in book form for the first timeVolume One features five Takahashi stories, including her first comic "Those Selfish Aliens", which won her Shogakukan Publishing's prestigious Best New Comic Artist award in 1978. Also included are two dramas, "Fire Tripper" and "Laughing Target", and two more comedies, "Maris the Chojo" and "Time Warp Trouble".
