☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the ninth installment of Monkey Punch's classic manga series, following the master thief Lupin III and his crew—including gunman Jigen, samurai Goemon, and femme fatale Fujiko Mine—as they pull off heists and outwit Inspector Zenigata. Published by Tokyopop in 2003, this edition continues the original 1970s stories with Lupin's trademark blend of action, humor, and cunning schemes.
In "The Scottish Tragedy," Lupin III stows away on a freight truck only to discover Fujiko and a mysterious old man aboard—setting off a chain of events that puts him at odds with a gang of hijackers who claim to be led by him. Written by Monkey Punch, Ray Yoshimoto, and Matt Yamashita, with art and inks by Monkey Punch, this 2003 Tokyopop issue delivers a twisty, high-stakes ride anchored in classic Lupin intrigue. The cover, a collaborative effort by Monkey Punch and Patrick Hook, captures the tension with sharp, dynamic lines.
In "How to Turn a Prophet," Lupin stumbles upon a freight truck carrying Fujiko and a mysterious old man, setting off a chain of events that puts him at odds with a gang of hijackers who claim to be led by him. The story unfolds with sharp wit and unexpected twists, as identities blur and old alliances are tested.
In "Couch Therapy," Lupin III takes on a bizarre heist when he targets a crime clan using a strange method: sensitive information is implanted in female agents, accessible only at the moment of climax. With his usual charm and nerve, Lupin must navigate this peculiar setup, testing his wit and limits in a mission that’s as awkward as it is dangerous.
