One hitman is feared above all in Japan: the killing machine known as The Fable. But is he really a tough guy or more of a...weirdo? After a particularly lucrative spree necessitates a break from his life of crime, the Fable faces his hardest assignment ever: living as a normal guy, with a cover story, an apartment, and a pet parrot!
An Angouleme Official Selection. It's Way of the Househusband minus the wife and kid, plus one adorable, friendly bird, topped off with a whole lotta blood! Inspired the new anime.
Omnibus edition includes Vol. 1-2.
The man called The Fable is a self-proclaimed genius at killing. The mention of his codename strikes fear into the hearts of every yakuza in Japan. His talent has brought him everything he could want: money, respect, purpose. But this is no legend. He's just a man--a rather irritating man who loves stupid jokes and bad TV.
After a bloody period of gang enforcement in Tokyo, the Fable's boss advises him to lie low and enjoy his earnings for a while. So begins the Fable's toughest mission yet: a full year living a normal life, at the other end of the bullet train, in Osaka. It's a mission he takes on with his usual professionalism and rigor. But can the Osaka mob let this legend rest? Or will they be unable to resist pulling him back into the underworld?
