    Volume 3 - 1st printing. Story and art by Hitoshi Iwaaki. Translated by Andrew Cunningham and Stephen Paul. Experience the immortal horror manga as it was originally meant to be read! For the first time in more than a decade, the Parasyte Paperback Collection pairs Hitoshi Iwaakis original, black-and-white art with a revised translation and updated interior and cover design. Change is the only sure thing. Shinichi has recovered from near death, but at the cost of more of his original, human body, which Migi had to replace. The two have also learned that they can work together, destroying the parasite that killed Shinichis mother. But so much remains unknown. What are the limitations of Migi and Shinichis shared body? Why can the fully-human girl Kana detect Shinichis presence, as a prey animal detects a predator? And finally, most importantly, what is the ultimate goal of the cunning and ruthless parasite Ryoko? Complete in eight volumes, Parasyte Paperback Collection features the translation, lettering, and size of the recent, acclaimed hardcover Parasyte Full Color Collection. This timeless manga inspired the global smash hit anime Parasyte -the maxim- and the live-action TV drama from the director of Train to Busan, Parasyte: The Grey. Softcover, 5 1/2-in.x 8-in., 288 pages, B&W. Older Teen (16+) Cover price $14.99.

    Volume 3 - 1st printing. Story and art by Hitoshi Iwaaki. Original English Translation by Andrew Cunningham. Additional Translation by Stephen Paul. They arrive in silence, out of dark skies. They infest human hosts and consume them. And they are everywhere. They are Parasites: alien creatures who must invade and take control of human hosts to survive. Once they have infected their victims, they can twist their hosts's bodies into any abominable shapes they choose: craniums splitting to reveal mouths of sharp teeth, batlike wings erupting from backs, blades tearing through soft hands. But most have chosen to conceal their lethal purposes behind ordinary human faces. No one knows their secret, except an ordinary high school student. Shinichi managed to stop the infestation of his body by an alien parasite, but can he find a way to warn humanity of the horrors to come? Hardcover, 6 1/2-in. x 8-in., 288 pages, full color. Mature Readers Cover price $19.99.
