Speed Racer Vol. 1

We''re going pedal to the metal in this all-new interpretation of Tatsuo Yoshida''s classic manga/anime MachGoGoGo, known to Western audiences as the demon on wheels -- Speed Racer! Speed Racer lives for the thrill of the race, but on the underground circuit, the rules are anything goes. Dodging bullets, explosions, and dirty tricks, he''s got one goal: to prove he''s the best. But when a dangerous syndicate targets his family, Speed''s greatest challenge won''t be on the track...it''ll be on the streets. With the police closing in and a masked racer lurking in the shadows, Speed is about to learn that some races can''t be won with horsepower alone. Award-winning writer David Pepose (Space Ghost, Savage Avengers) and superstar artist Davide Tinto (Ultraman: The Mystery of the Ultraseven, Star Wars: Bounty Hunters) co-pilot an action-packed reboot of the classic franchise.
