(C11) [Black Mary's Rainbow (Marie Kyōmu / Marii Aimu)] UNCLE JOHN VOL.2 (1979)
(C11) [Black Mary's Rainbow (京夢 麻里衣)] UNCLE JOHN VOL.2 (1979) 昭和 54年

Limited to only 200 copies, this work was a personal magazine of Marie / Mary's and focused mainly on their original manuscripts as a kojinishi (個人誌). Aligned with several members of the Year 24 Group's sensibilities, this work focuses a lot on BL / yaoi with elements of rock & roll, European aesthetics and prostitution - this is one of the first works I've owned in my collection that features a transgender / transfem lead or 'fairyboy' as noted by the author. This work was advertised in June magazine, one of the most prolific and important magazines for BL and shoujo themed works, showing Marie / Mary's talent and reach. This work was also sold at Comiket 11 on April 8th of 1979 (Ōta City Industrial Building).

From the author:

Phew, it's finally finished! The previous issue ended with something like this too, but this time I really put some effort into it!

This time, when things got particularly difficult, Aoki-san, Ōyama-san, Eriko-chan, and Yū-chan came to help me out. Thank you so much! ♡ I really appreciate everyone's cooperation!

And especially Yōda-san, who stuck with me through the production work—a special THANKS to you! And thanks to June, who let me advertise [in your publication]!

Well, as always, please send any impressions of this issue, requests, or anything else to the address below.
And to everyone who sent various LETTERS last time, thank you very much. They were all very helpful as references.

Also, there seem to be some people who would like to see “[The Sorrow/Tragedy] Part 1”, but unfortunately, that was something I did a long time ago and I no longer have any copies in my possession.
There are also copies being made...? Well, the price is gradually getting higher...
Even so, if you'd like one, please get in touch with me...

Well then, to everyone who has read all the way to the end:

Marie Kyōmu says, “That's it for me—bye-bye! ♡”

Still, it really did turn out well, didn't it?
“UNCLE JOHN” also managed to be published without incident, and Marie Kyōmu seems ready to go all-out again this year.

Well then, see you in Vol. 3!
See you again ♥
