Planetes Deluxe Edition Manga Omnibus Volume 2 (Hardcover)

Planetes Deluxe Edition manga omnibus volume 2 features story and art by Makoto Yukimura, in a deluxe hardcover edition featuring debossed patterns with tactile effect plus metallic gilding on page edges.

Hachimaki is determined to break free of Earth's gravity well by joining the crew of the fusion-powered Von Braun on its epic first crewed journey to Jupiter. If the giant planet can be successfully reached and harvested for the helium-3 fuel in its atmosphere, the entire solar system will open up to humanity.

But it isn't only worlds whose paths are made by unseen orbits through time and space... it's people, and Hachimaki must confront the tension of tightening his human bonds to Earth through marriage, even as he seeks the far frontier... just as his old captain, Fee Carmichael, must seek that invisible balance of forces with the past, present, and future generations of her own earthbound family. And if Fee and crewmates Yuri and Tanabe aboard the space junk removal ship Toy Box can't stop the long-feared Kessler Syndrome as a war in space threatens to spin out of control and fill orbit with an inescapable cloud of debris, humanity may never journey beyond Earth again! Planetes is an epic saga of family, friendship, and passion in a future not far away!
