Monster inspired a television anime series in 2004-2005, and 20th Century Boys inspired a live-action trilogy film adaptation in 2008-2009.
Viz Media has published Urasawa’s 20th Century Boys, 21st Century Boys, Monster, and Pluto manga.
This year’s 49th issue of Shogakukan’s Monthly Big Comic Spirits magazine revealed on Monday that Naoki Urasawa (Billy Bat, Pluto, Master Keaton, Monster, 20th Century Boys) will launch a new manga in the magazine next year.
The series inspired a television anime adaptation in 1998, and an original video anime (OVA) continuation in 2004.
