Small World

In a fashion-focused future, rich kids enjoy trips to "Small
World", a virtual visit to the slums of the lower city. Piedra is their
guide, a lowland local who few ever meet in real life. But young Kumiko and her
brothers get the rare surprise when Piedra shows up in their garage fleeing from
the evil Gaucho and his band of misfits. Suddenly their virtual adventure
becomes real!

Described by the author, JD Morvan, as a "cyberpunk Peter
Pan", SMALL WORLD mixes elements of classic European adventures with the stylish
futurism of such manga classics as AKIRA and GHOST IN THE SHELL. A gonzo blend
of Victorian architecture, punk rock, and cutting-edge sci-fi concepts, this
"manga-adjacent" tale is unlike anything else on shelves. Illustrated by
celebrated mangaka Toru Terada, this work stands as his only full-length comic
series to date, despite his global popularity.

Combining American, Asian,
and European comic elements, this book oscillates between adorable cuteness and
explicit violence in a way that fans of contemporary anime hits such as
AGGRETSUKO, ONE-PUNCH MAN, MOB PSYCHO, and KILL LA KILL will recognize and
gravitate toward.
