Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
After a traumatic encounter with school bullies, Hiro locks himself in his room. While online, he answers an ad for JUNK. When the package arrives, Hiro is shocked to find a gadget that activates armor, which bestows him with superpowers. Hiro uses the JUNK to seek revenge on the bullies, resulting in the deaths of his mother and father. Asamiya asks the age-old question: Do I use my powers for good or personal gain? The dark, foreboding art perfectly fits the character's mood and state of mind. Suggest this as a way to bridge the gap between manga and superhero comics. King, Kevin
