Inoue Takehiko (井上 雄彦）is one of my favorite mangaka of Japan. His masterpiece Manga “Slam Dunk” has influenced all boys from Asia. We learnt to play brasket ball because of it. I always feel blessing to born in 80’s to experience the golden era of Manga. So I did this for you all. I hope you all like it.
I have had struggled to capture his likeness and expressions. In the end I choose a smiling expression to show an introvert personality for a mangaka.
I hope this piece can bring back some of your teenage “Slam Dunk” memories. In the end, who else is waiting for the last chapter of “Vagabond”?
