Review Quotes:
"Drawn with eye-popping realism." --Entertainment Weekly
Publisher Marketing: A frighteningly adult science-fiction epic, Hiroya Oku's Gantz is a mind-blowing maelstrom of freakish horror, daring eroticism, and fierce imagination that has sold over 15 million copies in Japan and inspired three feature films and an anime TV series.
Once a fearful conscript into the team of warriors armed and deployed by the mysterious Gantz orb, Kei Kurono is born-again hard in the invisible war against an endless stream of bizarre alien invaders. But the off-world intruders are now taking human form, and even a friend may be a foe!
This value-priced omnibus collection features 680 pages of tumult and terror!
