Giant Robot #59

Description

"The undisputed champion of Asian, Asian-American, and hybrid popular culture is about to celebrate its 15th year. In this issue, cover artist Masakatsu Sashie takes a desolate world overrun by pop culture and rolls it up into a highly detailed sphere. Also, an interview with Hong Kong gangster actor Lau Ching-Wan; ""pet"" architecture from Japan, the hard-rocking, axe-master sisters from The Binges; tsunami bummers from Thailand; and gummy candy overload. Plus the latest in Asian cinema, artistic upstarts, new manga, indie comics, anime that doesn't suck, and much more."
