Japanese manga artist (born 1972)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rei Hiroe (広江 礼威, Hiroe Rei; born 5 December 1972) is a Japanese manga artist, best known for his manga Black Lagoon. When he is working on doujin comics, he goes by the name Red Bear.[1] Hiroe's manga were originally published by Kadokawa Shoten in the 1990s, but none were complete. As a response, Hiroe transferred to Shogakukan in the early 2000s, where all of his manga released before Black Lagoon were republished and re-released.
