About this Collection

In this 48th volume of the Case Closed manga series, detective Jimmy Kudo—still trapped in the body of a child as Conan Edogawa—faces a new mystery titled 'Death Comes As the Beginning.' This collection continues the ongoing investigation into the Black Organization while presenting a standalone case that tests Conan's deductive skills. Published by Viz Media as part of their English-language release, this volume compiles chapters from the original Japanese run by Gosho Aoyama.

In "Summertime Secret Code," Conan and the gang tackle a mountain-side mystery during an entomology lesson, decoding clues with Dr. Agasa’s help to uncover a hidden treasure. As Conan focuses on the puzzle, a sudden call from Rachel pulls Jimmy into a separate case—one that may be linked to the mystery unfolding above. Written by Gosho Aoyama and Tetsuichiro Miyaki, with art by Gosho Aoyama and inks by Andrea Rice, the issue blends clever puzzles with the series’ signature blend of suspense and charm, all wrapped in a cover by Gosho Aoyama and Andrea Rice.
