The two Cowboy Bebop manga series were adapted from the television show using the original cast of Spike Spiegel, Jet Black, Faye Valentine, Edward and Ein, in original adventures.
The mangas were released by the Japanese publisher Kadokawa Shoten within their magazine Asuka Fantasy DX. The magazine was targeted to Shōjo, females ages 10 to 18, and fans of Science Fiction.
The first volume of Cowboy Bebop: Shooting Star was released May 1998, just one month after Cowboy Bebop originally aired on TV Tokyo on April 3, 1998. However, the manga does not follow the tv series.

Cowboy Bebop
Book Description: By Yutaka Nanten Story by Hajime Yadate
What's money between friends? But, wait who said
they were friends? The lone wolf – the wizened vet – the femme fatale –
the smart-mouth kid when Spike, Jet, Faye and Ed get together; it can
mean only one thing: carnage is about to ensue. In keeping with the
popular but off-beat anime, the manga begins a series of original
stories that take the action to a whole new level. Spike, Jet and Faye
all end up after the same bounty, Spike goes after a convict who's
already in prison, and Faye (the con-artist she is) ends up the victim
of a con not once, but twice.
