Fullmetal Alchemist, Vol. 4

by Hiromu Arakawa / Hiromu Arakawa / Hiromu Arakawa / Akira Watanabe · Fullmetal Alchemist series

The Elric brothers face off against the homunculi, artificial beings with alchemical origins and their own inscrutable agenda. Arakawa expands the mythology while keeping the human cost visible: every fight is survival, every alliance provisional, and the Philosopher's Stone remains tantalizingly out of reach. Brotherhood, monstrosity, and the question of what makes a soul.
