Rei Hiroe (広江 礼威 Hiroe Rei, born 5 December 1972) is a Japanese manga artist who is more recently known for his latest manga, Black Lagoon. When he is working on doujin comics he goes by the name Red Bear. Hiroe's manga were originally published by Kadokawa Shoten in the 1990s but none were complete.
