![]() | Bleach: v. 1 by Tite Kubo
Buy new: £3.97 / Used from: £1.51 I love the art in this series, and the story not bad either. It's about a grumpy 15 year old boy, who finds he has the powers of a shinigami (death god). Funny and a page-turner. Ongoing series.

![]() | Zombie Powder - Volume 1 by Tite Kubo
Buy new: £3.89 / Used from: £0.01 From the same author as Bleach. There are unfortunately only 4 volumes of this engaging (and unfinnished) story. I'd reccomend it for the originality and the bonus pages at the back :)
