And because we're digital, it weighs...nothing! It's only as heavy as your preferred reading device. Of course, if you read it on your desktop, it is pretty heavy. But phones, tablets and phablets are light! Enjoy!

Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac

Knights of the Zodiac is one of the most popular and influential manga of its day. Known for it's handsome lads, over-the-top super moves and complicated armor, or "cloth" designs, this manga was huge in Japan and much of the world. And now it's our pleasure to feature it as a JUMP BACK and hopefully win over some new fans. Prepare for an action-packed take on classic greek mythology!
