Color of Rage

In this single-issue 2008 Dark Horse comic, writer Kazuo Koike—best known for Lone Wolf and Cub—collaborates with writer Jeff Carlson and artist Seisaku Kano to explore a visceral, standalone tale of vengeance and justice in a corrupt world. The story follows a man driven to the brink by systemic injustice, his rage manifesting in a brutal, color-drenched confrontation. With art by Kathryn Renta and Naomi Kokubo also contributing, Color of Rage stands as a stark, self-contained graphic novel that showcases Koike’s signature intensity in a Western comics format.
