Just when Kuzuno Sekai hits rock bottom in his life, he's transported to a video-game-like fantasy world and given the ability to stop time with a game controller!

Lifting skirts, stealing cash, escaping prison-sounds like a pretty good deal... except for the catch. His ability to stop time allows him to stretch a moment into months, but in the world's regular flow of time - where everyone else functions - he only has three days to accomplish some goal that isn't specified.

If he doesn't reach that goal before the world's three-day timer hits zero, he has no idea what fate awaits him!

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "Son of Neptune!" Based on the story by Rick Riordan. Adapted by Robert Venditti. Art by Antoine Dode and Orpheus Collar. Cover by Antoine Dodé. Percy is confused. When he awoke after his long sleep, he didn't know much more than his name. His brain-fuzz is lingering, even after the wolf Lupa told him he is a demigod and trained him to fight. Somehow Percy manages to make it to the camp for half-bloods, despite the fact that he had to continually kill monsters that, annoyingly, would not stay dead. But the camp doesn't ring any bells with him. Hazel is supposed to be dead. When she lived before, she didn't do a very good job of it. When the Voice took over her mother and commanded Hazel to use her "gift" for an evil purpose, Hazel couldn't say no. Now, because of her mistake, the future of the world is at risk. Frank is a klutz. His grandmother claims he is descended from ancient heroes and can be anything he wants to be, but he doesn't see it. He doesn't even know who his father is. He keeps hoping Apollo will claim him, because the only thing he is good at is archery-although not good enough to help the Fifth Cohort win at war games. His big and bulky physique makes him feel like a clumsy ox, especially in front of Hazel, his closest friend at camp. He trusts her completely-enough, even, to share the secret he holds close to his heart. Featuring a faithful adaptation by Robert Venditti, and incredible artwork by Antoine Dodé and Orpheus Collar, Rick Riordan's blockbuster book comes to life in The Son of Neptune, The Graphic Novel.
