{"product_id":"fire-tp-0826ub1348","title":"FIRE TP (28 Oct Release)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFire! follows the meteoric rise and fall of Aaron Browning¸ a troubled and poor Ohio teenager. In juvenile detention¸ Aaron meets the magnetic delinquent Fire Wolf—a motorcycle-riding rebel with an extraordinary musical talent. Their intense bond awakens a fiery passion for music in Aaron. Aaron moves to Detroit’s gritty factories and underground scene¸ where he forms the band Fire! to channel his emotions¸ rebellion¸ and raw energy. As fame explodes¸ he plunges into the era’s excesses—sex¸ drugs¸ rock ’n’ roll¸ Vietnam-era shadows—embodying the intoxicating yet destructive pursuit of freedom. Fire! immerses the reader in the turbulent late 1960s. A fascinating peek at the vibrant American rock music scene of the time. Aaron¸ inspired by Scott Walker¸ blazes across the pages¸ colliding with iconic personalities and legendary bands of the era. The collection also includes a short comic on Pink Floyd. Created by Hideko Mizuno¸ a trailblazing shojo pioneer mentored by Osamu Tezuka and a Tokiwa-so resident¸ Fire! broke new ground: one of the first shojo series with a male lead¸ featuring sex scenes that challenged post-WWII taboos and explored mature themes of desire¸ identity¸ and countercultural rebellion. Inspired by Scott Walker¸ Aaron is a flawed¸ hedonistic¸ and charismatic anti-hero. Fire! in English is long overdue. Classic shojo manga has been almost entirely absent from the English localization wave of the last two decades — a blind spot that has left anglophone readers without access to key works that shaped the medium. Mizuno is the acknowledged forerunner of the Year 24 Group. The artists — Moto Hagio¸ Keiko Takemiya¸ Riyoko Ikeda — are already familiar to all American Manga fans. Fire! is the missing ancestor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UNCIVILIZED BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41557847179322,"sku":"0826UB1348","price":77.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/comicbookeroo.com\/products\/fire-tp-0826ub1348","provider":"Comicbookeroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
