Review Quotes:
"Drawn with eye-popping realism." --Entertainment Weekly
Publisher Marketing: A terrifying adult science-fiction epic of fierce imagination, Hiroya Oku's Gantz has sold over 15 million copies in Japan and inspired three feature films and an anime TV series. This value-priced collection features 640 pages of shock and awe!
After earning enough combat points, the Gantz alien fighters are given three choices: freedom, better weapons, or resurrect a dead Gantz warrior. Each fighter has suffered greatly, and each has experienced devastating loss. But are they willing to further risk their own lives to bring back a fallen friend, and can they bring themselves to abandon the comrades who have bravely fought beside them?
