Summary "In Soul Beat, Volume 1, after a fateful encounter to save his friend, pro-boxer and 70s-loving soul brother Dante Alfonse will pursue his toughest challenge yet: defeat the Devil himself--or die trying! Dante Alfonse is a promising boxer who's more than capable of taking on any opponent, inside or outside of the ring. Whether it's a bully in his neighborhood or even stopping a robbery, he's quick to step in and hold down his city. Of course, when your name means "to endure," being an unstoppable force for good comes naturally! But sometimes, good deeds attract unwanted attention...Such is the case when Dante tries to defend his friend and mentor, Ben, from being killed by the worst person imaginable: the Devil himself! Now targeted by the forces of evil for his interference, Dante must use the knowledge his mentor left him and hone his newfound spiritual powers, not only to save his own life but to destroy the Devil before more lives are ruined. To his surprise, he's not alone. A centuries-long feud between Heaven and Hell begins to surface in the Mortal World, and both sides have their reasons for wanting Dante on their side of the fight. Caught in the crossfire, he'll have to figure out which side he's on, uncover the truth surrounding his mentor's mysterious past, and ultimately show the afterlife what it really means to have soul!"--Amazon.com.
