This is the story of Nicholas Wolfwood and Livio, two boys for whom friendship was brief, but still burned deep into their boyhood conciences. But those bits and pieces, though full of light, are mere shadows to these men of guns and blood and violence. Yes, in this volume of Trigun, our hero Vash takes a bit of a rest, and he certainly deserves one. So, now we'll study a boyhood relationship, one that, in this very volume, just might come to a destructive and angry end. Though, it may be a bit tough for either one of these "friends" to knock each other off. They both have secrets up their sleeves, and Livio, well he might even have an extra sleeve! As always, published in the ever-popular non-westernized format, with Yasuhiro Nightow's commentary in the back and the comical original black and white covers printed on the inside.

A lot of the Gung-Ho Guns have fallen victim to defeat and therefore death, but not by the bullets of the reluctant hero, Vash the Stampede. But even if the "Guns" seem to be dwindling, that doesn't mean there's a lack of violent freaks tearing up the planet. In "Gunslinger" Vash is running into all sorts of weirdos with guns. All the while, Kinves and his crew have something mysterious going on behind the scenes, and it doesn't look good for Vash and the people he lives to protect.

Vash the Stampede and his cohorts remain locked in a frenetic and terribly destructive battle with the remaining members of the Gung-Ho Guns, who are terribly resistant to defeat. The bitter feud promises to reveal secrets about both Vash and his mortal enemies. Just when you thought this series had reached its most feverish pitch, Yasuhiro Nightow turns up the heat in his wildly popular manga series, Trigun Maximum!

Vash the Stampede is back for more intense action, and it looks like it's only going to get harder as the saga continues! As before, we'll see some vicious battles with new foes from the Gung Ho Guns, tough and strange fighters with one mission, to kill the nice guy with the God gun integrated into his body. Vash and Wolfwood go up against Hoppered the Gauntlet, with his strange hockey mask and shield body and Midvalley the Hornfreak whose saxophone will blow your mind! And what's worse is these two killers won't take no for an answer. On top of that they've got Zazie the Beast with his weird animal ways waiting in the wings, and Legato looking on as always. It's a freakfest battle in the city, and it's going to be tough on our hero and his conflicted protector.

Trigun Maximum Volume 3 is intensity embodied - a front to back fight! Vash the Stampede and the mysterious Wolfwood versus the terribly resilient Gray the Ninelives and one of Yasuhiro Nightow's most curious villains, the completely frightening puppet master, Leonoff. The Gung-Ho Guns get harder and harder to beat as the philosophical tension between our two heroes grows daily. The Trigun Max manga includes many aspects and characters from the television show but places them in different situations at different times giving the reader a much more detailed and dramatic idea of who these terrible enemies really are and the rough challenges Vash faces every day.
