In STEEL ANGEL KURUMI, VOLUME 7 OF 9, the Steel Angels are still enduring an altered future and have managed to make a few enemies along the way. What appears to be a hopeless defense against the more-advanced Steel Angel Excelia soon turns to Kurumi’s favor, when she uses “love power” to transform into an Angel. But it is uncertain whether or not her newfound power will be strong enough to fight off her master’s new love interest. Apparently, time hasn’t healed the wounds of unrequited love, as an extremely mature Ms. Jinguji lays a predatory stake on a very young, very frightened Nakahito. The manga is authored and illustrated by KAISHAKU and will sell for $9.99.

THE BOSS, VOLUME 2 OF 30 is a tough tale of high school rivalries. A threat has been made on the students of Woo Sang High, and the guilty parties are none other than the fearsome bully, Guk-Do, and his ever-present sidekick, Chung-Ki. This terrible twosome is back again, terrorizing classmates, and unfortunately, Sang-Tae has forcibly grabbed the attention of both ruffians, but his meager attempts at self-defense might cause problems worse than black eyes and busted lips. The manga is authored and illustrated by Lim Jae-Won and will sell for $9.99.

THOSE WHO HUNT ELVES, VOLUME 6 OF 21 brings back the madcap gang of elf hunters who are more determined than ever to disrobe every elf who crosses their path.
