작품 스토리 소개

지구에서 달로 삶의 터전을 넓히고 평온하게 살아가던 인류 앞에 어느 날 ‘그것’이라 불리는 거대한 생명체가 나타난다. 이윽고 인간을 포식하기 시작한 ‘그것’에 맞서기 위해 우주에서 온 ‘문 사이더’라는 수수께끼의 전사가 등장하는데…?! 흡입력 있는 서사와 생동감 있는 일러스트, 그리고 독자에게 ‘정의란 무엇인가’라는 물음을 던지는 이야기.

이 작품은 일본 카가와현에 거주하는 만화가 듀오 TALI(탈리)와의 공동 제작으로 탄생하였습니다. TALI는 원작을 담당하는 타카후미와 일러스트를 담당하는 긴코로 구성된 콤비로, 2009년 월간 소년 만화 잡지인 ‘간간(ガンガン)’에서 데뷔하였으며 스퀘어 에닉스 만화대상에서 대상을 수상한 바 있습니다.

2012년에는 소학관에서 발행하는 ‘겟산(ゲッサン)’을 통해 ‘6의 트리거(6のトリガー)’ 연재로 데뷔하였으며, 그 이후로도 활발한 작품 활동을 이어오고 있습니다. 대표작으로는 ‘종말의 인류에게 문명은 필요한가요?(終末の人類に文明は必要ですか?)’와 ‘아슬아슬하게 막아내는 카타기리 씨(ギリギリ遮る片桐さん)’ 등이 있으며, 독창적인 세계관과 매력적인 캐릭터들로 많은 팬들에게 사랑받고 있습니다.

이번 주말 일본에서 개최되는 ‘코미티아 152(Comitia 152)’ NIUHI 부스에서는 TALI가 참여하는 문 사이더스 캐릭터 라이브 드로잉이 진행됩니다. 다른 곳에서는 볼 수 없는 특별한 이 행사를 현장에서 직접 만나보세요! 라이브 드로잉 시간은 NIUHI 일본 공식 SNS 계정 (https://x.com/NIUHI_Japan) 을 통해 추후 공지될 예정입니다.

5월은 KOMODO의 다채로운 행사로 가득한 달입니다! 이번 주 초부터 KOMODO에서 주관하는 만화·코믹스 크리에이터 대상 무료 전문 번역 지원 이벤트가 진행 중입니다 (http://newmanganow.com/join). 또한 이달 말에는 도쿄에서 열리는 코미티아(Comitia) 행사에 부스를 마련하여 NIUHI에서 공개 중인 다양한 만화 작품들을 소개할 예정입니다. 일본, 홍콩을 비롯한 전 세계 각지에서 모인 인디 만화를 한 자리에서 만날 수 있는 특별한 경험이 여러분을 기다리고 있습니다.

부스에서는 만화 작가를 대상으로, NIUHI 플랫폼을 통한 작품 공개에 대해 KOMODO 담당자와 직접 상담도 가능합니다.
