chaos •
Vertical announced the publication of A message to Adolf, Osamu Tezuka’s seminal manga about three Adolf’s and how their destinies connect.
The first book will be out on the 13th of September, RRP £19.99.
Japanese journalist Sohei Toge is covering the 1936 Berlin Olympics. During his stay, he is dealt a major blow when his younger brother, an international student in Germany, is murdered right after informing him about an important document. To make matters worse, all information regarding his brother as a student in Germany has been systematically erased, as if he never existed. Meanwhile in Japan, a half-German, half- Japanese boy named Adolf Kauffmann and his best friend, a Jewish boy named Adolf Kamil, were accidently involved in this incident. Their lives and fates are now inevitably interwoven around the biggest secret of the third Adolf – Adolf Hitler.
Out of print for several years, this new hardcover release is another essential entry to the library of possibly Japan’s most beloved manga and anime creator.
