Okada, Shigehiro

About

Shigehiro Okada received Third Prize in the inaugural AX New Artist Award in 1999 for his "The Color of the Sky." His work centers on characters whose eccentricites of self-expression put them on, and then push them over, the brink of self-destruction. Okada continues to write manga for AX and, more frequently, the pulp magazine Knuckles. (Source: Manga Updates)
