Brilliant anime director Satoshi Kon ( Paprika, Paranoia Agent, Tokyo Godfathers, Millennium Actress, Perfect Blue ) died tragically young in 2010 at the age of 46.
Opus contains the mastery of both realism and surrealism that would make Kon famous in Perfect Blue , as a manga artist becomes drawn into his own work and realizes the deadline he\'s up against is to stop a vicious serial killer before he can spill more innocent blood--not merely ink.
Before he became a director, he was a manga artist, and Dark Horse is honored to remember Kon with the release of Satoshi Kon\'s Opus , an omnibus collection of a two-volume manga from 1996, created by Kon on the eve of his first film.
