By the bestselling author of <i>JoJo's Bizare Adventure</i>. Stunning illustrations depict an original fantasy story in this captivating graphic novel. As Rohan, a young Japanese manga artist, is drawing, he meets a mysterious, beautiful woman who tells him of a cursed 200-year-old painting. The painting was created using the blackest ink ever known, which came from a 1,000-year-old tree that the painter had cut down without the approval of the Emperor. The painter was executed for this, but the painting was saved from destruction by a curator of the Louvre. A decade later, Rohan visits Paris and asks the museum to unearth the painting from deep within its archives--but he is completely unprepared for the power of the curse he has unleashed.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Hirohiko Araki<br><b>Publisher:</b> Nbm Comicslit<br><b>Published:</b> 04/01/2012<br><b>Pages:</b> 128<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.20lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 10.60h x 7.10w x 0.50d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781561636150<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Publishers Weekly</i> 03/05/2012 pg. 57<br><i>Booklist</i> 04/15/2012 pg. 49<br><i>Library Journal</i> 05/15/2012 pg. 65<br><i>Voice of Youth Advocates</i> 06/01/2012 pg. 169 - Recommended - Better Than Most<br><i>School Library Journal</i> 07/01/2012 pg. 103<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><b>Hirohiko Araki</b> </b>is a manga artist and the author of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series and the Steel Ball Run series, both of which have been serial
