20th Century Boys

In the late 1990s, a Japanese manga sensation crossed the Atlantic to Brazil, where Panini Brasil collected Naoki Urasawa's sprawling epic in 22 issues from 2012 to 2016. This thriller follows a group of childhood friends whose innocent clubhouse fantasies of a secret society and a villainous "Friend" eerily become reality as they grow up, with the fate of the world hanging on their old notebook. Urasawa's masterful blend of nostalgia, conspiracy, and suspense makes this a landmark of modern manga, celebrated for its intricate, time-hopping plot and deeply human characters.
