(Fall Frost Part 5 of 6) by HIROAKI SAMURA; produced by STUDIO PROTEUS Damn! The sword battle between Shira and Magatsu continues, and refuses to end or wane. And it's not like swords are the only weapons here, there are plenty of mental games being played, and some odd stabbing tools to use as well. This makes for a fantastic issue, because not only does the reader get a full issue of fantastic Blade of the Immortal sword fight action, but also lots of spicy, telling dialogue. And neither of these guys is going to go down easy. But, mind you, be prepared, because this issue is really going to finish up with a cliff hanger. On sale March 12.
