Weekly Shonen King 1981.37 Galaxy Express 999 Leiji Matsumoto Cover Magazine Key Features Product Description: This is a vintage weekly magazine "Weekly Shonen King" issue No. 37 from 1981. The cover features the iconic "Galaxy Express 999" by Leiji Matsumoto. It includes a full-color gravure feature and a special article celebrating the farewell of the "Galaxy Express 999" anime film. At the time, the TV anime series had ended, and the film also concluded with a different ending from the original manga, which was a hot topic among fans. The final chapter of the manga began in issue No. 36, making this issue a rare collectible as it was published just before the series' conclusion. The magazine showcases nostalgic popular manga and features a double cover with issues No. 36 and 37, which are the last issues before the magazine's discontinuation in 1982. As a rare vintage publication from over 40 years ago, it is in good condition with minor age-related wear but no significant damage. A must-have for collectors of classic manga and anime memorabilia.
