From superstar creators comes volume 3 in one of the most anticipated manga—a millennia-sprawling conspiracy thriller. All the Light We Cannot See meets historical figures everyone knows: Einstein, Walt Disney, Lee Harvey Oswald, and even Jesus Christ
A historical conspiracy thriller meta manga spanning multiple millennia following a Japanese-American comics artist’s search for the truth regarding the origins of his character “Billy Bat.”
The Bat appears again in 16th-century Feudal Japan. Kanbei, the fastest ninja in the Iga province, has been tasked by Lord Momochi to slip through a devastating siege by “Great Unifier” Oda Nobunaga and deliver a scroll that could alter the course of history.
Pursued in bloodlust by childhood friends and tormented by both his memories and the strange hallucinations of an imaginary bat, will he be able to prevent the prophetic “Bat Tome” from falling into the wrong hands?
The third volume in the sprawling genre-defying historical epic that transcends time and space!!
