About the series
Eat-Man is a 1997–1998 six-issue series from Viz Media, featuring the manga-influenced adventures of Bolt Crank, a wandering mercenary who can consume any metal and transform it into weapons or tools. Created by writer/artist Akihito Yoshitomi, the series blends sci-fi, action, and a touch of surreal humor as it follows its enigmatic protagonist through a gritty, post-industrial world. This English-language release helped introduce Western audiences to Yoshitomi's distinctive, kinetic art style and offbeat storytelling, making it a notable entry in Viz's late-1990s manga translation efforts.
