Good news for Berserk fans. Glénat is once again offering its brand new prestige edition of Kentarō Miura's cult manga, which was no longer in stock. And the first two volumes are available for pre-order. The perfect opportunity to rediscover this major work in a format that finally lives up to its ambition. You'll have to act quickly.
Berserk and its Prestige Edition
We're forgetting the classic paperback format here. This edition focuses on quality and presentation. Each volume brings together two volumes of the original edition, in a large hardback format (18.8 x 26.4 cm), with more than 460 pages. The production is meticulous, and certain details like the red edge of the pages (for volume 1) reinforce the collector's side. But that's not all. There are also completely new color pages, never before published in France. And to go further, the translation has been completely revised, to stick more closely to the original work.
The first volume of Berserk brings together volumes 1 and 2. It will be released on June 24, 2025 at a price of €24.90. With its 464 pages and hardcover, it is a truly beautiful object, designed for collectors and demanding readers alike. This larger format also allows for a better appreciation of Miura's plates. A real plus, as the drawing plays an essential role in the atmosphere and narration of Berserk.
The second volume of Berserk brings together volumes 3 and 4. It will have 482 pages and will be available from June 4, 2025, still at €24.90. Same quality, same care in manufacturing, and a real visual consistency for those who wish to start or restart the series in this format.
Where buy these collector's editions?
Both volumes are available for pre-order at Fnac, Amazon and Leclerc, at the same launch price: €24.90. Given the excitement surrounding Berserk and the "collector's" nature of this edition, it's best not to wait too long.
