G’Day Crusaders,

This is Dodgy86 in the mix bringing you Weekly Shonen Jump Vol. 209 by various writers, artists and creative teams.Â Proudly distributed by Viz Media.

The Shonen Jump phenomenon began in 1968 as a semi to bi-weekly magazine until popularity grew it has gone weekly and has it news stands all over Japan and never looked back. They are popular for all age groups and cater for different tastes, you have action that you’d expect from an anime and comedy to ease the mood.

In 2002 these Manga were brought to the world when Viz Media got the licencing rights to publish books from North America – the same day they are released the same day as they are released in Japan.

The cover issue is My Hero Academia, this issue is busy with non-stop action as Midoriya plans to be a hero but is he a bit out of his element when he faces off against the powerful Bakugo?
