As an added bonus, the initial run of The Art of River City Girls purchased from Fangamer.com will include an exclusive gold autographed bookplate sticker signed by several River City Girls creators and artists (available while supplies last).

An official part of the legendary River City/Kunio-kun series, River City Girls first launched in September 2019, allowing you to hit the mean streets with protagonists Misako and Kyoko to beat up every lowlife in town to rescue their kidnapped boyfriends, Kunio and Riki. This was followed by River City Girls Zero (an enhanced version of the 16-bit classic Shin Nekketsu Koha: Kunio-tachi no Banka) in early 2022, and most recently River City Girls 2, in which you protect River City from a yakuza takeover in an expansive adventure featuring six playable characters, online gameplay, 4-player co-op, and much more.
