A Look at Domu

Before starting Akira, Katsuhiro Otomo created Domu, a manga story about strange killings in a Japanese housing project. In anticipation of Dark Horse Comics’ re-release of manga series in a reprinted graphic novel, Newsarama has published an extensive article on Otomo and his Domu manga. While nothing has been mentioned lately, at one time there was talk of an American live-action theatrical adaptation of Domu from Touchstone Pictures to be directed by Guillermo Del Toro (Mimic, Chronos).
