Its deadly lightning dual-sword style cuts through evil!!
The manga version of the entertainment historical drama that once made Japan crazy
has been released as a book for the first time after over half a century!

[Commentary] 1960, when we entered a brilliant period of high economic growth.
A period drama hero who was born in the midst of the spread of television in the home. That is Hakuba Doji!

From January to September 1960, a total of 38 episodes (9 episodes) were aired on the NET (currently TV Asahi) series, and a movie version was also produced. It is a story about transforming into a white horse boy and defeating villains with his deadly electric lightning two-sword style to solve various incidents that occur on the way to Edo.

The main characters Hakuba Doji and Aoi Taro are the new face Shingo Yamashiro, who starred in Toei's first period drama "Kaze Kozo". It became a work that pushed up to the national level.

This book is the first book that contains the full story of the manga version serialized in the monthly magazine "Shonen Gaho" almost at the same time as the TV drama aired. The artist is Daiji Kazumine, who has worked on many manga adaptations of live-action works such as "Nanairo Kamen," "National Kid," and "Ultra Seven." "Duel of Nanbanji", "Counterattack Arashigahara", "Terror of the Iron Mask", "Duel on Itsukushima", "Devil's Elixir", "Black Wind Party's Counterattack", "Bozu Change", "Haunted White Butterfly", "Phantom Thief Ranbu" And the composition is faithful to the TV, and the TV version fans are satisfied with the comicalization.
