>>2170062Murata and ABe are very good friends. They first worked together on the steampunk RPG "Wachenröder" for Sega Saturn. Murata is the more well-established artist and invited ABe to contribute to the Robot anthology series with full color manga ("Wasteland", vols.1-9, and "Unidentified Cycling Object", vol 10, iirc). ABe is obsessed with lizards and due to his persistent insistence, Murata has bought several bearded dragons and such as pets.
