Monster Book 1: The young surgeon saved a boy who might turned out to be a monster

Naoki Urasawa's Monster, Vol. 1 - Naoki Urasawa, Satch Watanabe

Decided to read this for the Monster square. 

 

Monsters: any crytpozoological or mythological creature that isn't a vampire, werewolf, or demon. Or zombie.

 

The original book I have chosen for this square is mostly about demons.

 

This manga is not what I have expected. Nothing supernatural happened yet. Just a young surgeon Kenzo who were pressured into taken priority on VIP instead of first-come-first-serve. 

 

Not sure why other surgeon couldn't take over that surgery of lesser important to cover his ass.

 

Anyway, a boy was injured. And Kenzo decided to save him. He was found on a crime scene. 

 

There is 18 books all together. Pretty good manga considering that it is written in 1994.
