KABUKI is a long-running series of comic book series from artist/writer David Mack begun in 1994 and published with several different publishers throughout the decades. Kabuki is a female agent/assassin in a near-future Japan working for a clandestine government body that maintains the balance of crime and order. The art and imagery of the series is more striking than the sparse action or plot advancement, and Mack uses a myriad of art styles--mixing traditional and non-traditional styles, including magazine clippings, photographs, collages and even crayons. Comics have been published with several publishers over the years, beginning with Caliber, Image, Marvel (Icon), and Dark Horse.
