Black Joke 10

Sale price€5,90

Japan became the fifty-first state of the USA and the Americans turned it into a territory under their military and political control. According to current laws, Neon Island, which is located right in Japanese waters, has the right to practice gambling and prostitution, thus attracting a large number of tourists and criminals. Having become more popular than Las Vegas, Neon soon transformed into an island marked by feuds for control of casinos and pleasure houses, where the Italian mafia, the Chinese triad and the yakuza constantly clash. In this science fiction "gangster movie" scenario, the plot of Black Joke develops, the latest work by Masayuki "Battle Royale" Taguchi, which this time is dedicated to the criminal world of "those good guys" who, with kung fu (but always in a suit and tie!) massacre themselves to command the city of sin of a futuristic, cold and cynical Japan. Sex, money, weapons and lots of violence… martial arts fighters, gangsters of the future, champagne and beautiful women.
