It’s here: the newest volume for your growing library of books written by and/or with covers designed by Chip Kidd. In Bat-Manga!, released today by Pantheon in both hardcover and paperback editions, the dapper graphic designer, author, rockstar (see above), and comic book fan serves up the secret history of Batman in Japan. [Cut to shot of Adam West at a sushi restaurant.] The book features hundreds of pages of Batman-manga comics written and drawn by manga master Jiro Kuwata, who answered Kidd’s questions for a rare interview included in the book.
