Facade

25 volumes

1991 – present

This is a mysterious and haunting tale centered on a man who is cast adrift through time and space, never understanding his own identity or the reason for his endless journeying. His name is Facade, and he shares his body with four other beings: Wolf Face, a male wolf who has gained the ability to speak human language; Twin, a female swan with two pairs of wings; the Professor, a disembodied personality with no physical form; and Naaku, a dragon. Sometimes these co-inhabitants emerge in their own bodies, while other times they simply transform parts of Facade's body into their own. This allows Facade, for instance, to fly using Twin's wings or to manifest as the god Anubis to a group of ancient Egyptians by grafting Wolf Face's head onto his human form.
