With the release of the brand new
Space Sheriff Gavan movie just around the corner and a crossover into
Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters behind him, the original
Metal Hero is enjoying quite a revival. To add to these,
Akita Publishing has just released the first episode of a brand new Gavan web manga, which can be viewed
online (in
Japanese of course).
Not only that, but two new Gavan novels have been announced - one featuring the original Gavan, and the second featuring the new Gavan Type-G. The first book, "Space Sheriff Gavan The Novel", continues the adventures of Retsu Ichijouji
and a mysterious character named Julia. According to the synopsis, a
new criminal organization named Metos appears and hijacks the Dolgiran.
With the spacecraft taken, how will Retsu change into Gavan?
