Manga Author Suggests Avengers Team Of Violent Japanese Heroes

Manga author Yuuki Yogo recently got a bit of a bump in prominence when he illustrated Berserker Shinsengumi captain Hijikata Toshizou for hit mobile RPG Fate/Grand Order's Fate/GUDAGUDA Meiji Ishin event. With the extra attention he revisited an idea that he previously played with, posting an updated edition of his Japanese take on American comics' Avengers super-hero team.
