An Angouleme Official Selection
Omnibus edition includes Vol. 1-2. Anime coming soon!
The man called The Fable is a self-proclaimed “genius at killing.” The mention of his codename strikes fear into the hearts of every yakuza in Japan. His talent has brought him everything he could want: money, respect, purpose. But this is no legend. He’s just a man–a rather irritating man who loves stupid jokes and bad TV.
After a bloody period of gang enforcement in Tokyo, the Fable’s boss advises him to lie low and enjoy his earnings for a while. So begins the Fable’s toughest mission yet: a full year living a normal life, at the other end of the bullet train, in Osaka. It’s a mission he takes on with his usual professionalism and rigor. But can the Osaka mob let this legend rest? Or will they be unable to resist pulling him back into the underworld?Best-selling manga Japanese artist Katsuhisa Minami debuted in 2000 with the 31-volume street-racing manga Naniwa Tomoare before beginning work on the hit black comedy crime manga The Fable in 2014. The Fable, which is being published in English by Kodansha, now has more than 20 million copies in print worldwide, two live-action film adaptations, and an upcoming anime.US
