Works In 2015, Araki contributed an illustration of Cobra's partner, Lady Armaroid, for the book Cobra Great Dissection. A gun-slinging outlaw who always smokes and has the power to fire projectiles without having a line-of-sight. In 2014, Araki said that the idea for Hol Horse might've been inspired by the titular main character of Terasawa's manga, Cobra. ![]() ![]() He said the sci-fi elements in the series were very reminiscent of the ones that appear in his own. In 1985, Terasawa appeared at the end of the first volume of Araki's second series, Baoh the Visitor. Terasawa would go on to support Araki saying, "I encouraged him because he could tell stories better than he could draw them." The initials "B.T." in Araki's first series, Cool Shock B.T., are also a reference to Terasawa's name. He also noted that the elaborate methods Araki used for composing stories would be better suited for writing novels and screenplays than for drawing manga. Terasawa noted that while Araki wasn't very skilled at drawing, he still had a talent for storytelling. Terasawa's connection with Hirohiko Araki dates back to the 80s when he read the manuscript for Araki's debut manga, Poker Under Arms, submitted to the Tezuka Awards. ![]()

![]() ![]() As Erdrich explains in her afterword, conflicts of jurisdiction and sovereignty have long made it difficult to prosecute non-Native men for the rape of Native-American women on or around reservations. There is the assault on Geraldine – not just the question of who committed it, but almost as important, where. The Round House, winner of the 2012 National Book Award for fiction, is a fusion of two stories, although that seedling image suggests an apter term: grafting. Soon, father and son will learn that Geraldine, Joe's lovely mother, has been brutally raped, and the different ways the boy and the man respond to this trauma can be construed from this seemingly mundane beginning. The symbolism is a shade heavy-handed, a fault that has been found with Erdrich's books in the past. For the first time ever, Joe's old man, a judge on an Ojibwe reservation in North Dakota in the late 1980s, tires of the task before the boy does and leaves him to finish up. ![]() ![]() A t the beginning of The Round House, the novel's 13-year-old narrator, Joe, is helping his father pry out tree seedlings that have lodged in the cement-block foundation of his family's house. ![]() |
