JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure has been telling the tale of the Joestars for decades, with creator Hirohiko Araki stating recently that he would love to work on the series forever if he could. With Araki clearly in love with the world he has created, the mangaka has also recently worked on the side series known as Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, which features a manga artist with a Stand of his own. Now, one cosplayer has given fans a brand new take on the mangaka.

In the latest chapters of Kishibe Rohan’s manga, readers were able to see the supporting cast member of Diamond Is Unbreakable battle against the curse of an ancient tree while also dealing with an eco-terrorist, allowing creator Hirohiko Araki to comment on climate change, amongst other topics. On top of this spin-off series, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure has also taken the opportunity to focus on several other supporting characters throughout 2022, with the likes of Iggy, Lisa Lisa, Hol Horse, Josuke Higashikata, and many others making appearances in side stories that take place outside of the main series from Hirohiko Araki.
Instagram Cosplayer KuvetCos shared this new take on the manga artist harboring a Stand of his own, with Rohan easily becoming one of the most popular supporting characters of the anime franchise thanks in part to his own spin-off series which usually pits him against supernatural threats to create a spooky anthology series:
Currently, the plan for the future of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is that creator Hirohiko Araki will be returning with a ninth part of the franchise, tentatively titled JoJo Lands, though few details, if any, have been revealed regarding what the story of the ninth part of the franchise will be. On top of this new storyline, Netflix is set to release new episodes of Stone Ocean this fall, bringing back Jolyne Cujoh’s adventure within the Green Dolphin Street Prison as she attempts to clear her name while also saving the life of her father, Jotaro Kujo.
