Japanese mag/comic info needed

[Marvelmania]

Picked this up with a few comics this past weekend at a yard sale. The only English on it is the title and the date 1988. The cover is a dust jacket. I can't find any info on it. Has some great color drawings inside and even a pull out. Anyone know anything about it?

Hmmmm....

It's a design/art book for the series "Grey." The comic rocked, but the movie was horrible. It's set in the future where a state of perpetual war exists and the only job anyone can get is to be a "trooper." Supposedly if you earn enough you can become a "citizen" and are moved to a secret city somewhere.

Grey is the main character. They call him "Grey Death" 'cos he's usually the only survivour from his teams. "Lips" was his girlfriend. She became a trooper even though Grey hated them. She died, and he wears her helmet for good luck. (That's why there's a bullet hole in it.)

Thanks a lot Don. I didn't know anything about it at all.

Hmmmm....

If you get the urge to read it, they did the comic in English a while back. It was collected into two little graphic novel books. It's very good, but kinda bleak. (AND it features the KV-2; my all time favourite tank!)
