Monster: The Perfect Edition, Vol. 4 (4)

Iv watched the Anime version of Monster many years ago and was blown away by its addictive story, drama, action and suspence, one of the very rare manga stories with a rapid turn of events for a humble Japanese docoter.You won't regret purchasing this one, highly recommended for anyone!Those new to Japanese Manga world, and those wanting something more if a non fictional taste and closer to reality.Get all 9 Volumes!

Took a long time to read but it was a good one

Monster, Perfect Edition, Volume 4 starts off on a tangent, a private investigator named Richard is trying to rebuild his life and reconstruct the cases that he never solved. At the center of those cases is Johan Liebert, who is the personal assistant to the banking magnate, Herr Schuwald. Dr. Tenma is getting closer to this Johan - who he believes to be the Johan who committed the crimes for which Dr. Tenma is a wanted man - and the good doctor plans on killing him.Naoki Urasawa should be mandatory reading for anyone who is serious about comic books. His work is contemporary, bold, long-running, and engaging. Having read basically eight tankōbon volumes of both Monster and 20th Century Boys, I have to say that so far, Monster is a little more linear and a lot less digressive. There are tangential stories in Monster, but they lead back to the main story. The pace continues throughout the series, and it always comes back to the main duo of Johan and Dr. Tenma.Johan and Dr. Tenma are two sides of the same coin. They are both driven, bent on bringing their plans to fruition, dark, and cunning. Johan is the archtypical sociopath. He is as at ease wooing captains of industry as he is controlling children, murderers, and college students. Dr. Tenma, in his own way, is becoming Johan. Is this what Johan has had planned all along? Will Dr. Tenma play some role in Johan's plot? ****3/4

Very good read look foward to the rest of them
