20th Century Boys Vol.1

How do you stop a future that you and your friends wrote as children? In 1969, a group of young boys led by the imaginative Kenji Endou created a secret hideout and wrote the “Book of Prophecy,” a scrapbook detailing a fantasy where they would one day save the world from a villainous organization. Decades later, Kenji is a simple convenience store manager whose dreams have faded. But when a mysterious and charismatic cult leader known only as “Friend” emerges, he begins to execute the events of their childhood book with terrifying precision. A deadly virus, giant robots, and global conspiracy are no longer make-believe. This is 20th Century Boys, the award-winning mystery manga from the master of suspense, Naoki Urasawa, presented here in its iconic black-and-white format.
