We’re thrilled to welcome Shintaro Kago, the unique and world-renowned manga artist from Tokyo to Heroes Made in Asia 2026!

Born in 1969, Kago creates comics and illustrations with themes such as eroticism, black humor, absurdity, and surrealism. His distinctive artistic style has been called “Fashionable Paranoia” in the West.
