Description

2-2025...A prime example of 1960s spy mania, this lot highlights Taku Horie's vivid artistry for Spy Catcher J3. With J3's Corvette Stingray, echoing 007's Aston Martin, it captures the era's espionage allure. These are six story pages and the original cover art, epitomizing the fusion of espionage and technology. Ink on art paper with an image area of 4.5" x 7".

I really like how the main character looks a bit like Speed Racer! It could have very well been the inspiration.

It does have a speed racer vibe! Cool pickup to get a Manga cover and 6 page story from 60 years ago. congrats!

I'm thinking that pen is drawn too detailed not to be a spy gadget.
