Hitoshi Tomizawa
Hitoshi Tomizawa (富沢ひとし, Tomizawa Hitoshi) is a Japanese manga artist. Alien 9 is his best-known work; his manga tend to be short, with sci-fi stories involving children and insects. His art was fairly standard shōnen manga style for his first series, but starting with Alien 9 it became very distinctive, but with very large eyes and unnatural proportions, and has since been featured in exhibitions including Takashi Murakami's superflat.[1] Before making his debut, Tomizawa worked as an assistant to Baki the Grappler author Keisuke Itagaki.[2]
