Series: Mobile Suit Gundam Cucuruz Doan’s Island
Based on the legendary “lost” episode from the First Gundam TV series, this is the story of Cucuruz Doan like youve never seen it before.Created as a spinoff of original character designer and animation director Yoshikawa Yasuhikos own manga retelling of First Gundam in Mobile Suit Gundam: THE ORIGIN, this 5-volume series explores the ramifications of Cucuruz Doans actions from the perspective of the Zeon soldiers under his command. Gundam veteran Junji Ohno brings us brand-new characters and a new view of the development of the original mobile suits, all with the imprimatur of Yasuhiko himself.
