Wow. Here I thought I was all on top of Evangelion fandom and I come to find that the first volume of Angelic Days (aka Iron Maiden 2nd aka Girlfriend of Steel 2) has been available for the last month! The first volume was published May 5th through ADV Manga, and should be in stores near you. Volume 2 is slated to be released August 25th, and volume 3 is slated to be released November 25th, according to Amazon. While you may have a number of months to go before volume 10 of the official Eva manga makes its way into your grubby little hands, you can go out and pick this up to tide you over. Sure, it may be fluff, and not as epic as Anno’s beloved canon, but it just might be able to satiate your desire for more Evanglion. So go on, buy, you are but a mere cog in the machine of consumerism, and don’t you deny it.
