A mint copy of one of the most pivotal volumes in the Blade of the Immortal series and it has never been read. Placed in a protective sleeve the moment it was purchased and untouched ever since. Pages crisp, spine uncracked, cover flawless. Preserved by a collector, for a collector.
Why this volume is a turning point:
Dark Shadows is where Samura dramatically changes the formula of the series. The Itto-ryu have grown politically powerful after destroying rival sword schools across Japan and now they face a deadly new threat: the Akagi, a shadowy organisation built from survivors of the dojos they crushed, sworn to bring Anotsu down. The scope broadens significantly, the politics deepen, and Samura proves he can handle a large ensemble cast just as masterfully as a two-person road story. This is the volume where Blade of the Immortal truly grows into something larger than itself.
The original Dark Horse single-volume 1st editions are out of print and increasingly scarce in this condition.
Condition: New Mint. Placed in a protective sleeve immediately upon purchase by a private collector and never removed. Unread, unhandled, spine uncracked, pages pristine.
