Fullmetal Alchemist
Fullmetal Edition, Vol. 1 (1)
Hiromu Arakawa
Alchemy is a mystical power that can alter the natural world - a blend of magic, art, and science. Edward and Alphonse Elric tried their hand at this power for their most profound desire, but it comes at a cost. One lost an arm and a leg, while the other became a soul trapped in a body of living steel. In this world, Edward is a slave to the government, using his unique powers to kill and obey. But he's not alone in possessing these powers. The race for the ultimate alchemical treasure - the Philosopher's Stone - is ruthless, and their enemies are just as deadly as they are.
