This manga is one of the oldest manga.
A very long time ago, long before the appearance of man, wild dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Today there is only one left – the smallest and most amazing of all! GON penetrates through the dense terrain, protecting the friendly and furry from the vicious and hungry. Without words, the stories being told emphasize the amazing skill and genius of Masashi Tanaka’s visual storytelling.
In 2013, an additional chapter was released in Afternoon Magazine (to promote the CGI show), and in 2006, a spin-off titled “Gong Chan” was released in Comic BonBon magazine, which lasted until 2007. It is noteworthy that in 1998 this work was awarded the Prize of Excellence at the Media Arts Festival in Japan.
Also in 1998, it received the Eisner Award for the best publication of international material and the best humorous publication at the Eisner Award ceremony.
