Diabolo Volume 1 Graphic Novel

Introduction: Diabolo is a harrowing tale of supernatural intrigue set in and around a modern-day Japanese high school.
Protagonists Ren and Rai fell prey to the Diabolo in an attempt to save the soul of Ren's cousin, 7-year-old Mio ... although they failed in their attempt, they were 'rewarded' with powers they would each gladly trade for the life of the young girl.
Just who - or what - is the Diabolo? What enticements does he offer the kids at school? And, if they accept his 'bargains,' what foul fate awaits them on their 18th birthdays?

This Volume's Story: Something extra-wicked this way comes! Ren and Rai play with fire when they sell their souls to the demon Diabolo to save Ren's cousin. Diabolo gives Ren the power of ultimate defense and Rai the power of ultimate offense. However, those who fall into the Diabolo's trap start to go crazy at 17, and at age 18 they reach the point of no return....
