From Eroica With Love

Immediately after making the last post, I was compelled to make an entire post dedicated to From Eroica With Love.

If you want the full experience, listen to the following video as you peruse this post:


I don't know if I've ever explained my lovecrush on Robert Plant, but apparently Yasuko Aoike feels the same way. Clearly the main character in the manga is modeled after Master Plant:

His name is Dorian Red, so obviously Dorian Gray was her nominal inspiration. He's an art thief and ridiculously homosexual, so if you can imagine a faggot breaking into the Louvre while the Immigrant Song is playing, that's the basic idea of the comic. He also thwarts Nazis and the KGB and NATO officers are involved, because, really, why isn't that necessary.

If you want to learn more, there's a dedicated fan page that you can check out.
