UQ Holder! #12

Four members of UQ Holder take up a striking battle-ready formation on this volume's cover — a hooded blond figure crouches at the forefront clutching a blade, flanked by a dark-haired swordswoman, a witch in a wide-brimmed hat carrying spell-books, and a tactical fighter in a long coat, all set against a dramatic, stormy backdrop. Ken Akamatsu's supernatural action series continues to blend intense character dynamics with a richly imagined world, and this twelfth volume promises the group is heading into something serious. A great entry point for readers following the team's ongoing adventures.
