Description

Blurb:
The archeologist Tozo Mikami discovers an ancient Buddhist relic, The Arm of Kannon, an object of strange and mystical power. But soon afterward, he disappears, leaving behind a wife and two children. Three years later he reappears ... but he may not be the man he was. His son, Mao, suspects the worst. And when a mysterious warrior shows up as a protector for he and his sister, Mao begins piecing together the story that may lead to a secret organization committed to exploiting the magic of the ancient relic for the development of super soldiers for the military.
Der Archäologe Tozo Mikami findet ein buddhistisches Relikt, genannt Der Arm von Kannon. Dieses Relikt hält eine eigenartige und mystische Kraft in sich. Doch nach dem Fund dieses Reliktes verschwindet Tozo spurlos und hinterlässt seine Frau mit 2 Kindern.

Drei Jahre später taucht Tozo wieder auf, aber er ist nicht mehr die Person, die er einmal war. Mao, sein Sohn, hat ein schlechtes Gefühl mit seinem Wiederauftauchen und dieses Gefühl verschlimmert sich weiter, als ein mysteriöser Krieger erscheint und sich als der Beschützer von Mao und seiner Schwester ausgibt. Mao macht es sich jetzt zur Aufgabe, den Hintergrund zu all den Geschehnissen zu erfahren und kommt nach ein bisschen Recherche auf eine wichtige Spur. Diese Spur führt ihn zu einer geheimen Organisation, die sich die Erforschung von antiken Relikten zur Aufgabe gemacht hat und diese zur Entwicklung von Supersoldaten benutzen.

Testo della bandella:

Le vicende narrate riguardano un ragazzo che conosce una letale arte marziale e che caccia i mostri che si nascondono nella nostra società. Altre personaggi che, almeno in questo primo numero, hanno un ruolo di rilievo sono una ragazza e un ragazzo, due fratelli molto legati fra loro, che vengono trascinati dal padre in un incubo che cambierà per sempre le loro vite. Il tutto è legato ad un artefatto che dona al proprio possessore un immenso potere, trasformandolo tuttavia in una creatura assetata di sangue. Ovviamente in molti sono sulle sue tracce... chi per studiarlo, chi per usufruire del suo potere e chi, probabilmente, per distruggerlo.
