Trigun Creator Yasuhiro Nightow’s Blood Blockade Battlefront gets an Omnibus Collection

The high-octane, fast-paced action of legendary manga artist Yasuhiro Nightow continues beyond his acclaimed series Trigun and Trigun: Maximum, which recently received the Deluxe Edition treatment from Dark Horse Manga. Fans can now pre-order the sci-fi future-scape epic Blood Blockade Battlefront, coming soon in paperback omnibus format. Blood Blockade Battlefront Omnibus Volume 1 collects Volumes 1-3 and “E-Den of Master Fighters” from Volume 4 of the original manga and features lettering by Studio Cutie and translation by Matthew Johnson.

Hellsalem’s Lot, once known as New York City, is a magical city trapped inside an impenetrable bubble. The powerful barrier keeps an onslaught of mystical and mythical monsters from wreaking havoc across the rest of the world after a breach between Earth and the Beyond forced all inside creatures to coexist. Those locked in the city must rely on stylish super humans to keep the peace and ensure their survival. Someone is threatening to sever the bubble and let chaos rip through the rest of the world. One young man with special eyes is determined to stand up and protect the world!

Join the fight today, and pre-order Blood Blockade Battlefront Omnibus Volume 1 in paperback for $29.99.
