This is the story of three young men whose lives are profoundly changed by their involvement with wheelchair basketball. Critically acclaimed, award-winning manga artist Takehiko Inoue doesn't pull any punches in this stunning portrayal of people struggling with serious life issues. Masterfully combining rich character development with beautifully detailed line art, Inoue, the creator of the mega-hit masterpieces  Slam Dunk and  Vagabond, lifts the manga medium to a completely new level of storytelling.  A motorcycle accident, bone cancer, a speeding truck crashing into a boy on a stolen bicycle--tragic life-changing events turn the worlds of three young men upside down. These three very different personalities have only one thing in common--their passion for basketball.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2008-07-01\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viz Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48276244300002,"sku":"9781421519890","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/0005\/1501\/files\/9781421519890.jpg?v=1787896661","url":"https:\/\/www.mangadeal.com\/products\/9781421519890","provider":"Manga Deal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
