This Is The ONE To Have

Of all the Speed Racer graphic novels or comics I've seen so far this has to be the best of the best! Gripping story line with fantastic art, others pale in comparison. You MUST have this one if you are a Speed Racer/Racer X fan!

Speed Racer from another POV

I think that this version and look was the best I have see for speed race yet. Its not the original but for neo-graphic styling that still accurately gives the whole Speed Racer feel, this is one of the best graphical references I have seen yet.

WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE BLUEPRINT FOR A SPEED RACER MOVIE

I purchased both of the original mini-series and couldn't wait to relive the "thrills, spills and chills" all over again. Nearly a decade after their respective releases, the material stands the test of time. While the art by both Tommy Yune and Joan Chen is breathtaking, it is the modernization of the Speed Racer/Racer X mythos that truly astounds. Core concepts integral to the series are re-imagined in an updated sense while still paying homage to the source material. It's obvious Mr. Yune respects the material and is also a fan of it. My only regret is that this book leaves one salivating for more, particularly in the wake of that abominable movie. I have asked this for years and will ask one more time. Why couldn't Tommy Yune's work been used as the basis for the Speed Racer film?!?
