Benkei in New York

N.Y.の弁慶

This manga embodies the essence of noir. Benkei appears to be just another Japanese expatriate artist living in New York City—but that's only on the surface. As these "diabolical hard-boiled stories" reveal, appearances are deceptive. Flashbacks uncover sordid, hidden pasts, and long-nurtured grudges resurface without warning, demanding to be settled. And Benkei's secret? Perhaps it's simply that he's the only artist in town who isn't daydreaming about being a hitman for hire. He already is one.
