II, featuring a new manga by Shaman King creator Hiroyuki Takei and comics legend Stan Lee! The worlds of Japanese manga and American comics are about to collide! The creator of Shaman King, Hiroyuki Takei, has teamed up with Stan Lee, the mastermind behind Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and the Uncanny X-Men, to create an explosive new manga in Japan. Called Ultimo (Karakuridôji Ultimo), the manga tells the story of two floating figures who suddenly appear above Farmless City. As the battle ensues between them, destruction and devastation falls on the hapless city. One figure is Vice, and seems to be as evil as his name implies. The other is Ultimo, intent on trying to stop Vice from wreaking more havoc. But who are Vice and Ultimo really? A new mystery begins with the fate of the world possibly hanging in the balance! The prologue of this historic manga will debut in Japan in Jump SQ. II, a special issue of Jump SQ., the sister publication of Japan's best-selling manga magazine, Weekly Shonen Jump. Ten lucky fans will each win one autographed copy of Jump SQ. II, which includes the 32-page prologue of Ultimo in the original Japanese! And any winners who will be attending New York Comic-Con on April 18 can receive their copies from none other than Stan Lee himself at a special press-only event!* This is the only way you'll get to experience Ultimo.
