JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure may have completed it’s fifth season, Golden Wind, but brand new adventures are on the way for the legendary anime franchise with the upcoming OVA, Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan. Following one of the supporting characters from the fourth season, Diamond Is Unbreakable, the series will follow the eccentric manga artist as he sets out on brand new adventures with his Stand, Heaven’s Door. Now, in honor of the artistic Stand wielder, one fan has decided to perfectly recreate one of the covers from the manga series that first brought Kishibe Rohan’s solo adventures to life.
Instagram User Knitecoser shared this amazing recreation of the ninth volume cover for JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan that features the creator of Pink Dark Boy, one of the most successful manga released in the fictional universe that houses the Joestar bloodline:

Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan will be debuting later this year, promising to feature the manga artist as he travels outside of the walls of the sleepy town of Morioh. One of the benefits of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is its anthology style story telling as each season/storyline can introduce brand new characters for fans of the franchise to follow, opening up the potential to focus spin off stories on any of the Stand wielders we’ve encountered during the series’ long past.
