A must for die-hard RWBY completists, the DOGS: Bullets & Carnage creator Shirow Miwa revamped, in his own signature style, the four character trailers featuring Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang that all take place before Season 1, before they joined TEAM RWBY.

Featuring full-color pages (there’s also a fold-out poster in the volume!), Miwa’s adaptation of the “Red Trailer” reworks Ruby’s solo battle against more than her fair share of Grimm, proving without any doubt why she’s team leader.

Shirow Miwa’s take on the “Black Trailer” is action packed, but also keeps the deeper moments intact, giving a look into Blake’s complicated past with Adam Taurus, the current leader of the White Fang, as they rob a train full of Dust.

Yang’s story is a retelling of the “Yellow Trailer,” featuring Yang’s battle with “Junior” Xiong and the vicious Malachite sisters.
