Crusher Joe
Manga
Adventure, Sci-Fi, Action
Crusher Joe is a series of science fiction novels written by Haruka Takachiho and published by Asahi Sonorama from 1977 to 2005. During the late 1970s one of the founding fathers of Studio Nue, Takachiho, decided that besides being a designer he would try his hand at penning novels. The result was Crusher Joe, whose antiheroes were not the typical self-sacrificing types but noble in their own right nonetheless.
