A curated collection featuring the world’s greatest thief, Lupin III, in some of his best capers ever!

Lupin III: Greatest Heists is a collection of twelve classic stories from throughout Lupin’s history. Taken from Monkey Punch’s Lupin III and New Lupin III, these stories have been fully retranslated and are collected in one volume for the first time.

Monkey Punch’s immortal creations are among the most beloved characters of all time, from master thief Lupin III to his trusted sidekicks and tenacious rivals. Lupin III is also an icon of animation, starring in the stunning 2019 CG animated film Lupin III: The First, and Hayao Miyazaki’s feature film directorial debut, The Castle of Cagliostro.

This special collection of Monkey Punch’s classic manga stories was originally published in Japan as a tribute after his passing in 2019.

Praise for Lupin III (Lupin the 3rd): Greatest Heists - The Classic Manga Collection

"This collection of shorts feels like a perfect personification of the more out-there aspects of Lupin's career. Even amongst the violence and innuendos, there's a surprisingly childish sense of playfulness with the characters and how they approach everything, but it never feels jarring or out of place... I think any self-respecting Lupin fan should already have this as part of their collection." --MrAJCosplay, Anime News Network

"Greatest Heists is a fantastic way of experiencing the original manga series without having to spend an arm and a leg. The breadth and variety of content included means it is likely to have at least one chapter you have not read before, helping to make this well worth your time." --Lupin Central

"The real treat is the joyous irreverence and artful expression. The sheer elasticity of Monkey Punch's characters is a delight in every panel. It's easy to see why Monkey Punch's work continues to amaze, shock, and delight audiences all these decades later..." --Grant Jones, Anime News Network
