Three hundred years ago the Dark Magician Deshwitat Lived Rudbich, a vampire, was sealed in limbo by the Light Magician Kalutika. Resurrected in the present day, Deshwitat has vowed to destroy Kalutika, and now, with the help of a team of spiritual warriors, seeks the means to use Light Magic to achieve his ends.

Rebirth - a compelling fantasy action manwha from Korea.

Kang-Woo Lee

Rebirth is Kang-Woo Lee's first published manhwa and has been serialized in the Korean weekly comic magazine Champ since 1998. As of early 2003, there are also 13 volumes of Rebirth available in graphic novel format, too - and the series is still running.

Kang-Woo Lee is a dedicated baseball fan (having named one of his characters Sheffield, after star outfielder Gary Sheffield) and a video game master, too.

Deshwitat Lived Rudbich
A powerful Dark Magician and Vampire, Deshwitat was never particularly evil, but held his status with dignity. 300 years ago his beloved fiancee Lilith was killed by the Light Sorcerer Kalutika, and Deshwitat's body was sealed in limbo while his mind was left to contemplate revenge for 300 years. He is awoken in the modern day to find Kalutika's forces rising in power. Deshwitat now seeks the means to destroy Kalutika, and after completing his quest he plans to let himself die.

Remi Do
The 17-year-old daughter of Sang-Ho Do, a supernatural investigator. She is angry at Deshwitat for draining her father's blood, but the vampire assures her that Sang-Ho can be resurrected after he himself is slain. Now she works with Deshwitat to eliminate Kalutika so that the vampire can die in peace.

Rett Buttler
A swordsman who was a friend of Deshwitat 300 years ago. Kalutika forced immortality on him so that Rett would have to witness the end of the world.
