Case Closed, Vol. 91

＂Can Detective Conan crack the case...while trapped in a kid’s body? When ace high school detective Jimmy Kudo is fed a mysterious substance by a pair of nefarious men in black--poof! He is physically transformed into a first grader. Until Jimmy can find a cure for his miniature malady, he takes on the pseudonym Conan Edogawa and continues to solve all the cases that come his way. FLY ME TO THE MOONSTONE. A man is killed in a cave-in, and his dying message points to a mythical monster--but Conan and Harley are sure it’s the work of a very human killer. Then the Kaito Kid sets his sights on a trick box containing the world’s largest moonstone, and it’s up to Conan to stop the master thief from hang gliding off into the night with it. And when Rachel and her friends go shopping for swimsuits, their bikini montage is interrupted by a murder in a dressing room! Meanwhile, Conan’s classroom gets a new teacher. Ms. Wakasa seems nice, if oddly klutzy, but is there more to her than meets the eye?＂--

Gosho Aoyama made his debut in 1992 with Chotto Matte (Wait a Minute), which won Shogakukan’s prestigious Shinjin Comic Taisho (Newcomer’s Award for Comics) and launched his career as a critically acclaimed, top-selling manga artist. In addition to Detective Conan, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 2001, Aoyama created the popular manga Yaiba, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 1992. Aoyama’s manga is greatly influenced by his boyhood love for mystery, adventure and baseball, and he has cited the tales of Arsene Lupin and Sherlock Holmes and the samurai films of Akira Kurosawa as some of his childhood favorites.
