Cowboy Bebop: Shooting Star
The manga series written by Cain Kuga (久雅カイン?) based on the anime series Cowboy Bebop. It is an alternative telling of the story featured in the anime TV series. The series also features some changes in character design. "Shooting Star" was added as a subtitle in for the US release to differentiate it from the original manga series. The original Japanese manga, all the chapters were called 'Shoots' without titles. The English version adds movie titles to each chapter instead of song titles like in the anime.

Famous quotes containing the words shooting star, cowboy, shooting and/or star:
“Her eyes the glow-worm lend thee,
The shooting stars attend thee;”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
“The lariat snaps; the cowboy rolls
His pack, and mounts and rides away.
Back to the land the cowboy goes.”
—William Jay Smith (b. 1918)
“Power ceases in the instant of repose; it resides in the moment of transition from a past to a new state, in the shooting of the gulf, in the darting to an aim.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The obvious parallels between Star Wars and The Wizard of Oz have frequently been noted: in both there is the orphan hero who is raised on a farm by an aunt and uncle and yearns to escape to adventure. Obi-wan Kenobi resembles the Wizard; the loyal, plucky little robot R2D2 is Toto; C3PO is the Tin Man; and Chewbacca is the Cowardly Lion. Darth Vader replaces the Wicked Witch: this is a patriarchy rather than a matriarchy.”
—Andrew Gordon, U.S. educator, critic. “The Inescapable Family in American Science Fiction and Fantasy Films,” Journal of Popular Film and Television (Summer 1992)
