Brief Description:
"Strange, cute, and charming new characters are around every corner in Oh My Goddess! Omnibus Book Three! First, the blonde bombshell demonness Mara descends with a wicked plot to possess the body of Keiichi's little sister, Megumi...which leads Skuld to build a new character, Mini-Banpei RX, to combat their infernal rival! Then, at a mountain resort, the ghost of a long-dead lovely maid takes form to try to get Keiichi to honor a promise his grandfather made to her, and Mara strikes back by conjuring a trio of killer ninja masters...ninja masters only one foot tall! Oh My Goddess! is America's longest-running manga series. Dark Horse first published OMG! in comic book format way back in 1994 and has been the exclusive publisher ever since. Now, Dark Horse is collecting Oh My Goddess! in the larger, omnibus format with three of the original trades in each omnibus for the low price of $19.99. There will be a total of 14 volumes"--

Publisher Marketing:
Oh My Goddess! Omnibus Book Two introduces the third of the Goddess sisters--the youngest, Skuld. It seems Keiichi's life wasn't complicated enough with Belldandy's magic and Urd's potions, so now Skuld is here with her personal form of weirdness--engineering! No sooner has she arrived at Nekomi Tech than Skuld appoints Keiichi's own little sister Megumi to be her arch-rival, and challenges her to a robot battle...to the death? Plus, as a special bonus, the universe will be destroyed when the superstring holding together existence is cut by a ten-dimensional scythe...unless the Goddesses can stop it. But that's just another day on campus in
this manga!
