僕はビートルズ [Boku wa Bītoruz] [Boku wa Beatles] #2

A young man commands the cover of this second volume, rendered in かわぐちかいじ's clean, expressive linework — guitar in hand, his focused gaze hinting at the musical ambition burning within. The bold text grounds the story in 1961, declaring that it was a Japanese band, not the Beatles, who released "抱きしめたい" — a premise as tantalizing as the era itself. Written by 藤井哲夫 and drawn by かわぐちかいじ, *僕はビートルズ* vol. 2 continues what shapes up to be a fascinating collision of rock history and pure fiction, published by 講談社 in 2010.
