D.N.A²

In this five-issue German miniseries from Carlsen Comics, a young man discovers he possesses a bizarre genetic ability that can transform him into a powerful, impulsive alter ego—a literal "mad" version of himself. Written by Masakazu Katsura and Satoshi Yamada, with Katsura providing the artwork, D.N.A² blends sci-fi and romantic comedy as the protagonist navigates the chaos unleashed by his dual nature. A compact, playful cult favorite from the early 2000s, it showcases Katsura’s signature mix of clean character design and high-concept storytelling.
