It's a series that I posted up to our sister site (Cuppa Joes) and it was so popular that I've brought it to Spectrum Nexus. It's none other than the very popular series Claymore! Here is a brief description: Claymore is a fantasy series that follows Clare, a strong warrior that protects humans from creatures called Yoma. This series is dark, extremely entertaining, and filled with gory battles that should fulfill your bloodlust. If you read the series already on Cuppa Joes website, there are new chapters added to Spectrum Nexus; start reading from Volume 13 and then the latest chapters 76-79. Also, yesterday the following new manga were added: Air Gear Ch 199-200 and Love Monster Ch 66-71. http://www.thespectrum.net/#508 Sun, 4 May 2008 05:45:00 EST http://www.thespectrum.net/#504 The April Giveaway is officially over and I've decided on some new prizes for this month. May's prizes are Fullmetal Alchemist Volume 1-10 or The Complete Calvin and Hobbes Boxset! I decided to change it up a little bit and I decided on offering Calvin and Hobbes. Why? Well simply put, it's one of the best comics ever made. I always try to offer prizes that I would personally want to win, and so Calvin and Hobbes was a easy decision. I also may have future plans to add Calvin and Hobbes comic strips to Spectrum Nexus, so offering the boxset might get the ball rolling on me adding it. May's Giveaway has the same requirements as April's, so if you're subscribed to the newsletter you're automatically eligible to win! Also, today we have a brand new manga preview: Baki Son of Ogre. It's a follow up series to the popular shonen series New Grappler Baki, so come on by to check it out! http://www.thespectrum.net/#504 Thu, 1 May 2008 04:15:00 EST http://www.thespectrum.net/#501 The April giveaway winner has been announced!

Also, new Shamo has finally been added! Shamo Volume 23 Ch 27-31 is the latest and greatest Shamo additions. If you haven't heard of this seinen series, now's a great time to read it (all volumes are posted because it's not licensed). So it's not the complete Shamo Volume 23, but at least half of it. When more is available I will be sure to post it asap. http://www.thespectrum.net/#427 Wed, 23 Apr 2008 03:30:00 EST http://www.thespectrum.net/#423 The most recent and notable manga additions on Spectrum Nexus are the following: Beauty Pop Ch 36, Beck Ch 95, Nodame Cantabile Ch 115, and Tenjou Tenge Ch 114. Tuesday's update included a brand new manga preview. The series is called Sanctuary, and it is seinen series that has complex characters, a thrilling story, passionate sex, and ruthless violence. It's a must-read for all seinen fans out there! Here is a brief description of the series: Sanctuary's story revolves around Akira Hojo and Chiaki Asami, two childhood friends that took opposite paths in life. One joins the gang in Japan, the Yakuza, and the other joins the government. Some say it's "The Godfather" of Japanese manga; we feel that if any manga is going to blow your mind, this series just might be it! For a limited time only the complete series will be available on Spectrum Nexus so come on by and check it out! http://www.thespectrum.net/#423
