One Punch Man Webcomic vs Manga
A Twitter thread went viral in the last week of December 2023, showcasing a comparison between the Webcomic and Manga versions of One Punch Man.
For those unfamiliar, One Punch Man originated as a webcomic drawn by ONE, the original creator, and was published on his official website. When it transitioned into a physical manga, Murata was hired to redraw ONE’s webcomic.
Murata possesses an exceptionally beautiful art style, often enhancing action scenes and making female characters more attractive, such as Tatsumaki.
