His body is overtaken by a powerful being named Amon. Now torn between his humanity and the demon within him, Akira uses his abilities to fight in the war between demons and humans for the future of the world itself!
“"A horror/superhero fusion, about a boy whose secret identity is that of a brawny muscled devil-creature. In the TV series, Devilman is basically a hero who fights a different monster in every episode. But the manga version was something much more original, much more crazy, much more Nagai." --Jason Thompson, Anime News Network "The art is very reminiscent of the original series without being a slave to recreating the 1970s, forming a nice mix of styles. Seven Seas' representative commented that this was a good entry to the Devilman franchise, and I'm inclined to agree with him - not only did the book leave me wanting volume two, but also curious to check out the original." --Rebecca Silverman, Anime News Network”
