Meet Crusher Joe Rebirth
The original work, Crusher Joe , is a series of light novels , released between 1977 and 2016, written by Haruka Takachiho and illustrated by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko .
The story follows the Crusher Council , a group of individuals who perform a variety of tasks, from transportation to terraforming, and everything in between. In the early days of space exploration, these workers took on the task of destroying asteroids and defining space routes. The public nicknamed them "Crushers" because of their work, and this name eventually became their trademark.
The Crushers follow strict rules. The Council strictly prohibits unethical and illegal assignments, barring any professional who accepts them. Underworld clients will do anything to trick the Crushers into accepting immoral work, knowing that once the Council accepts a case, the Crushers have an honorable duty to follow it. Among the elite teams are the main characters in this story: Joe, Alfin, Talos, Ricky, and Dongo.
