Lupin III Volume 12 Graphic Novel

Introduction: Monkey Punch's Lupin III franchise follows the exploits of master thief, Lupin III, and his fellow partners-in-crime, Jigen, Goemon, and Fujiko. Over the 35 years since the first installment of Lupin's exploits appeared in print in Japan, the franchise has spun off a total of 3 separate manga series (comprising dozens of volumes) and hundreds of animated TV episodes, theatrical features, and original video productions.
Take a healthy dose of James Bond, add a splash of The Thomas Crown Affair, filter through the warped prism of Mad magazine ... stir thoroughly ... and multiply by about 12 ... the resulting cocktail might just begin to capture the irrepressible lunacy of Lupin III.

This Volume's Story: The media is getting good at covering the exploits of the world's most infamous thief ... perhaps too good. It seems stories about his heists are coming out before he even heists. But that isn't nearly as irritating to Lupin III as a rival thief who seems to predict Lupin's attacks before he even attacks. And to make the master thief's life even more frustrating, an invisible man sees Lupin's moves before he even moves. Can our man get the upper hand on anyone? Find out in this new thrilling volume of verve, venom ... and vampires. Yes, vampires. And you don't want to know what Lupin has to do to get rid of that affliction.
