Cooking with Monsters (Book 3): Best Served Cold TPB | IDW

Monster fights and high school romances are served in the final course of this critically acclaimed YA graphic novel trilogy, perfect for fans of My Hero Academia . At the Gourmand Academy of Culinary Combat, Hana and her friends have been trained to battle monsters… and turn them into delicious meals. They’ve grown up together, fought monsters together, fallen in love with each other… and lost some friends along the way. As the new school year begins, the kids will put their understanding of human/monster relations to the test — as they’re each instructed to pair up with a monstrous new partner! Meanwhile, the sinister poacher uprising has found a monster companion of its very own: the reptilian ruffian known as the Pskynk! As the final chapter of their story heats up, a battle for the heart of the nation is ready to hop off the back burner. Will the kids’ bonds with each other—and their monsters—be enough to put this uprising to bed once and for all?
