The eleventh volume of Atom: The Beginning marks the team's return from their adventures in Vietnam, where they were able to uncover clues about the 'robot boy' from the future.

They have the chance to ponder the various pieces of information they gathered, whilst resuming their research and daily life. But before everything can become completely normal again, an unexpected visitor disrupts the harmony.

Someone that the team does not get along with the team turns up, out of the blue, at Lab-7. Their appearance leads to some unsettling revelations that could bring them even closer to the truth about the 'robot boy', but at what cost?

Volume 11 of ATOM: The Beginning, created by Masami Yuki and Tetsuro Kasahara, seems as if it's leading our heroes towards the secrets of the iconic Osamu Tezuka creation, Astro Boy, an icon known across the world from the hugely successful manga and anime. However, it's slowly becoming a truth that might be better left untouched.
