About 『COBRA』
『COBRA（コブラ）』 is a manga known as the debut work of manga artist Terasawa Buichi and his representative work that spread his name far and wide. It depicts the exploits of Cobra, the universe’s most wanted bounty hunter, who travels the cosmos in his beloved ship Turtle with the Psycho Gun hidden in his left arm and his beautiful partner, Armaroid Lady.
Shining brightly across eras as a monument of SF action manga, this work’s appeal goes beyond the charm of characters like the protagonist Cobra, his beautiful partner Lady, and his arch-nemesis Crystal Boy. The fresh excitement from its countless famous lines and thrilling action scenes feels completely undiminished by 45 years, continuing to spread across generations and borders.

Reflecting on Terasawa-sensei, who sadly passed away in September 2023, this is a memorial POP UP STORE titled “Memory of Terasawa Buichi”.
