Product Details

Praise

“Eye-popping images rendered in styles both hyperrealistic and playfully childish abound across virtually every panel of this long overdue collection of classic comics. . . . Suguira Shigeru . . . reimagines Sarutobi Sasuke, a heroic ninja from Japanese folklore, as an anarchic, shape-shifting prankster set loose in feudal Japan to bedevil whoever crosses his path. . . . Suguira Shigeru’s sense of design and bold use of collage and montage effects result in an enjoyably silly and absurd masterpiece of early psychedelic art.” —Library Journal

“As a madcap tour of a truly artistic mind, Ninja Sarutobi Sasuke is hard to beat” —Ross Locksley, UK Anime Network

“This new edition is remarkable not just because of its prior rarity, but because of the simple purity of its construction…. A quote attributed to Picasso seems apt: “It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.” Howard Waldstein, CBR

 ”This eye-popping mash-up of kiddie cartoons and underground art is perfectly weird.” —Publishers Weekly

“For me, this is such a joyful and engaging process, that I find Ninja Sarutobi Sasuke to be a perfect comic in terms of what it is trying to achieve. The manifestations of Sugiura’s stream of consciousness narrative never cease to amaze me.” – James Bradshaw, The Comics Journal
