    Hirohiko Araki (born Toshiyuki Araki), is the legendary manga-ka behind JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, one of the longest-running manga series ever. He is well-known for his distinctive (read: FABULOUS!) art style, incredibly clever fights, and the fact he never ages. He's also almost perfectly symmetrical.
