First manga in more than 10 years to be translated into English from the legendary creator Leiji Mastumoto (Space Battleship Yamato/Star Blazers)!
Published in English for the first time, this widely admired slice of intergalactic manga contains pirates, space opera and much more. Emeraldas, known throughout the galaxy as the Pirate Queen, travels through space on her heavily-armed ship, searching for a secret. Hiroshi Umino is a young boy who escaped the bounds of Earth only by building his own spaceship. He crashes on Mars, where he encounters Emeraldas, who sees a little of herself in the reckless young man.
Praise for Leiji Matsumoto
"[Matsumoto is] a big source of our inspiration. [His show Captain Harlock] was the main cartoon we were influenced by when we were kids." -Daft Punk
"One of space opera's greatest creators... [his] work stands out because of his striking characters and because of his distinctive themes." -io9
"One of Japan's most celebrated manga and anime artists... [his film with Daft Punk is] the fantastic culmination of years of artistic dedication." -Pitchfork
