Suikoden Manga


Revisiting the world of knights, magic and ducks.

Over the weekend I picked up the first volume of the Suikoden III manga from TokyoPop, the comic translation of the popular PS2 RPG. While I would have loved to see a manga translation of the earlier Suikoden 2 (my favorite of the series), the three-sided tale of war, betrayal, dark magic and the 108 heroes is an excellent epic fantasy to read.
The art is excellent, and the story seems to follow the game's plotline quite faithfully. Also, it seems that the book will take great pains to include most if not all the characters in one way or another.
Suikoden III manga is a MUST for fans of the game, and for manga fans who are aching for an great swords and sorcery adventure to get into. Get your copy at Comic Quest or your favorite comic shop.
