At last!  Over twenty years after Nakazawa completed his epic masterpiece it was first published in Japan, the definitive English translation has been completed and the last two volumes have been published here in the USA, courtesy of the fine folks at Last Gasp.  These volumes take us to eight years after the atomic blast that destroyed Gen's home city of Hiroshima, and the destructive forces unleashed by this devastating blast continue to reverberate through the lives of its inhabitants.  The series ends with a violent climax before concluding on an upbeat and hopeful note.  Anyone who has been waiting for the completion of the series before starting now has a green light to tear through this 2,500 page masterwork.  We say, go for it!
