Award-winning Filipino comic book and hit Netflix anime series! In a city where the vampiric aswang control everything illegal and where ancient gods seek to control everything else, enforcing the law can be a very difficult task. When crime takes a weird for the weird, the police normally call Alexandra Trese. But lately, it seems like others have been taking that call... A mysterious motorcycle racer has been capturing criminals with his unearthly speed. A masked giant has been demolishing drug dens and destroying gangs' headquarters. Trese must control these supernatural crime-fighters and bring back order to the city, before the underworld attempts to seek balance in its own way. Trese: Midnight Tribunal is the fifth volume of the award-winning Trese comic book series, upon which the hit Netflix anime series is based, featuring an overarching storyline divided into four cases. It includes updated/remastered artwork, as well as bonus material, including Alexandra's journal entries chronicling her creature encounters, as well as an afterword by writer Budjette Tan, detailing how the story evolved from a 20-page stand-alone case to its current form and the factors that influenced the story.
