Touka and his classmates are abruptly catapulted into a fantasy world, summoned by the world's resident goddess to serve as heroes. The good news? Most of the students display amazing skills upon arrival! The bad? Mimori is the worst of the lot, bottoming out at a measly E-rank.

Abnormally powerful, perhaps!

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "Lost Legends of Nothing!"

Written by Fanny Rodriguez. Art and cover by Fanny Rodriguez and Alejandra "Ale" Green.

Welcome back to Nothing!

After the battle with Stryx, Nathan is lost and alone (again). But this time he has friends to find and a quest to continue! At least no one is chasing him... well, except for that ancient evil spirit trying to destroy Nothing. Oh, and the war started (great!). Once reunited, Nathan, Haven, Sina, and Bardou must continue their journey to the Edge. Nathan has visions of Lerina that intensify as they travel, and the group discovers that the clues to save Nothing may reside in the lost legends of the past. Unexpected allies appear but new enemies lurk everywhere, and the most powerful foe is attacking Haven's spirit from within, creating a race against time to save them.

If Nathan and his band of friends weren't already feeling the pressure, they must prevent two realms from tearing Nothing apart, defeat Stryx, and not die in the process (no biggie). Otherwise, volken, faes, and all magic could vanish from Nothing... forever.

Based on the story by Marcel Proust. Adapted by Stephane Heuet.

Now in trade paperback!

Proust, now a teenager, describes his first separation from his mother, a vacation taken in a high class beach resort in Normandy. Besides the fleeting visions of young girls, he also keenly observes, without acidity but detached amusement, the petty sophistry of the French upper class in its genteel environs, safely removed from the lower ones. An important social question is to know whether the pane of glass will always protect the feast of the marvelous beasts and if the obscure people peering at them through the night will not come and pick them out of their aquarium and eat them.
