Discovered this in the depths of my library...
Master Keaton is a surprisingly good read. Fantastic art, massive amounts of detail to even the most obscure of historical events, to the point that you might accidentally catch yourself learning something, a worldly approach with its locations and characters that feel surprisingly grounded and modern despite being published nearly thirty years ago, a great, cinematic atmosphere that takes its creations in an almost anthology-style approach while still keeping a flowing narrative, keeps things fresh and exciting. I give Naoki Urasawa’s Master Keaton my fullest recommendation,
