Invaders from outer space are just part of a normal school day for Lum, bikini-clad alien princess, and her unwilling fiancé Ataru, the most lecherous teenage loser in the world. Now meet Lum's archrival, the cute, sweet-tempered, and homicidal Ran, who's returned to Earth to get revenge!

By Ranma 1/2 and Maison Ikkoku creator Rumiko Takahashi!

Poor teenage Ataru's life has never returned to normal since volatile extraterrestrial princess Lum fell for him... And the wacky friends and foes her tiger-striped bikini-clad presence seems to attract only makes things even worse!

This time, Lum's diminutive cousin Ten bursts onto the scene! Pesky, precocious, fire-breathing Ten sports a tiger-striped diaper and those trademark alien horns, but has the preoccupations of a testosterone-fueled adolescent. Ten spices up the lives of the entire cast of Lum, from hot (literally) dates with gorgeous school nurse Sakura to male-bonding at the ski races, and heats up their holidays, from the alien festival of Setsubun to a very untraditional Valentine's Day!

The fourth Return of Lum graphic novel, Trouble Times Ten collects the second half of monthly series The Return of Lum Part Two and the first issue of Part Three.
