The current issue of the magazine Big Comic Superior (Shogakukan) now presents its readers with a fresh series. Titled "Iron Rekki: Non-Visual Combat," two experienced artists dedicate themselves to rally sport.
Behind the new work are Masato Soda and Kura Tomiyama. Soda is no stranger in the industry; he created, among other things, the long-running series "Capeta." This story revolved around a boy who finds his way in karting and rises to higher formula classes. For this work, he has already been awarded the prestigious Kodansha Manga Award. Now, together with Tomiyama, he shifts the setting to the challenging courses of rally competitions.
The plot of "Iron Rekki: Non-Visual Combat" takes place in the world of rally sport, a motorsport discipline where participants compete against each other on closed, but otherwise ordinary roads. The focus is on characters who dive into this demanding environment. The first publication took place in the current magazine issue, which also contains two award-winning short stories by other talents. The issue is rounded off by a published conversation between two artists.
