Publisher TOKYOPOP announced the forthcoming launch on December 14th of CAPTAIN LASERHAWK: A BLOOD DRAGON REMIX, an original new boys’ love manga inspired by the Netflix anime series featuring alter egos of characters from the hit Ubisoft video games in a highly referential homage to the early 90s.

"I'm so thankful to Adi, Ubisoft, and TOKYOPOP for letting me play in this wonderful sandbox that they've created,” says Ben Kahn. “I can't wait for fans to see how Dolph Laserhawk's doomed romance began, and how it irrevocably set him on his current path."
