Garry Kasparov will be appearing in Blitz, a chess-themed graphic novel from Ablaze Publishing slated for release in September. The book cover on the publisher's site shows a prominent image of GK along with the words "Featuring Garry Kasparov".
https://www.ablaze.net/product-G9781684970766.html The book is an English translation of a shonen manga (japanese boys' comic) created by cowriters by Cedric Biscay and Harumo Sanazaki and artist Daitaro Nishihara.
One online source states the book was made with Kasparov's cooperation, while another says he is a consultant. The story itself concerns Tom, a high school student with a crush on his classmate Harmony. When he learns of her passion for chess, he joins the school chess club, even though he doesn't know how to play the game. The description on the Ablaze site continues "To impress Harmony, he is left with no choice: he must learn quickly and train seriously. Soon Tom discovers the existence of Garry Kasparov, the greatest player in the history of chess. He stumbles upon a virtual reality machine that promises to help him analyze the most legendary matches of the master!"
Online previews of the beginning of the book show Kasparov playing against a supercomputer named "Kaiju 96". He makes a brilliant move, and the computer crashes. (An indirect way for GK to even with the score with Deeper Blue?)
Later Harmony is studying the well known Kasparov-Topalov game from a book. The panel showing her board accurately reproduces the position of the game after Black's 23rd move; i.e., just before the famous 24.Rxd4!! However, the panel with the diagram in her book erroneously has a White queen on d6 instead of a Black one.
Other preview pages have Tom, Harmony, and their clubmates dressed as knights or samurai and engaging in armed combat, likely in fantasy sequences created by the virtual reality device.
The interior pages are in black and white, which is common in manga. Tom, Harmony, and their schoolmates are drawn with the stylized features typically used in manga, but Kasparov is drawn more realistically. Ablaze states that the book will also have annotated games and a lexicon explaining chess terms.
This English translation is labeled as Vol 1, while the original manga is already up to Volume 6.
