Initial D GN (2002-2008 Tokyopop) comic books 2008-2010

Volume 29 - 1st printing. Story and art by Shuichi Shigeno. The battle between Tak and Shirojima-Purple Shadow's "God Arm"-is not going to be over quickly. While Tak is becoming more and more confused by Shirojima's driving technique, K.T. takes this opportunity to take a nap! At the rate the race is going, it looks like Shirojima will win-is there any way Tak can overtake him? Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.99.

Volume 30 - 1st printing. Story and art by Shuichi Shigeno. Tak had done the impossible by using the side gutters to re-pass Shirojima and keep himself in the battle, but has he really done more than simply prolong the inevitable? As yet another round gets under way, it's suddenly painfully clear that Shijojima won't fall for the same trick twice. Think Tak still has a chance? Wait till he makes a wrong move and trashes his suspension! Now there's no way our undefeated champ can possibly win on skill-luck would have to somehow intervene. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.99.

Volume 31 - 1st printing. Story and art by Shuichi Shigeno. K.T. seems a perfect match for Purple Shadow Hoshino and his "holy foot", but as they race he can't get any closer, and Hoshino's GT-R can't pull away from him either-and the observers give both drivers 50-50 odds. Things change, however, in the next round when K.T. leads the battle. The competition is fierce but K.T. makes a move in haste, a maneuver that's just taught Hoshino what he needs to know to win... Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.99.

Volume 32 - 1st printing. Story and art by Shuichi Shigeno. If imitation is a form of flattery, then the Project D boys get flattered big time in this issue. Before returning from Ibaraki, Tak is treated to a ride in the car of the gracious God Arm and gets a sense of a higher plane in driving. But he returns to Gunma to receive a big slap in the face from a pretty up-and-coming 17-year-old golfer named Mika Uemura. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.99.

Volume 33 - 1st printing. Story and art by Shuichi Shigeno. Iggy, Cole, and Kenji look likely to spend the summer single while D heads to the hot spring hills of Hakone for their biggest challenge yet at the foot of the Fuji speedway. The big Kanagawa street teams reluctantly meet and agree to a four-pronged plan to end D's winning streak and send them back to the minor leagues... Only the fearless survive in the white-hot world of street racing! Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.99.
