The Mammoth Book of Best New Manga by Ilya
Here comes the new breed: A full-length anthology of best new manga, by the brightest young talents in the field. Bursting with energy and imagination, this collection features the most exciting new work by an international cast of mangaka - Japanese style comics being produced by manga creators worldwide. Contributors include promising future stars like Michiru Morikawa, winner of the International Manga and Anime Festival's Grand Prize, Selina Dean (Sweatdrop) and Asia Alfasi, as well as established names such as Andi Watson and Craig Conlan. 544 pages! At over 500 pages long, the anthology showcases more than fifteen new stories, complete and unabridged. Many expand on the limited popular conception of 'big-eyed' manga in original and unexpected ways - home-grown stories that speak directly to a wide audience.
Writer and artist ILYA draws on more than thirty years of professional experience - as an internationally published comics creator and author, but also as an educator. Since 1990 he has designed and delivered workshops on the art of drawing for schools, colleges, galleries, museums, libraries, youth groups and prisons, across the UK as well as abroad. His Manga Drawing Kit (2005) was an international bestseller, resulting in co-editions in French, German, Spanish and more. How to Draw Comics is a new title for 2016. Other book titles by ILYA include the award-winning graphic novel series, The End of the Century Club, Manga Shakespeare's King Lear, and Room for Love; as compiling editor: The Mammoth Books of Skulls, The Mammoth Book of Cult Comics and three volumes of The Mammoth Book of Best New Manga, also Colour Me Bad. 2017 sees the debut of the all-ages sci-fi action adventure, Kid Savage, produced in collaboration with a co-creator of Ben10, Deadpool/Spider-man wrangler Joe Kelly.
