Template:Book JoJonium (ジョジョニウム) is a large-format special release (Commonly referred to as Kanzenban in Japan) of the first 3 parts of the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure manga (Phantom Blood, Battle Tendency and Stardust Crusaders), stylized as a "Favorite Edition" (愛蔵版) and "Boxed Edition" (函装版) in the package.

This re-release comes with extra content such as character redesigns, new cover illustrations and color pages not included in the tankōbon release. The end of each volume includes notes from Araki discussing the creation of the characters.

Each volume is printed in A5 size format (148.5 × 210 cm or 5.83 × 8.27 in) on high quality paper.

The release of this edition started with two volumes on December 4, 2013 and it will be periodically released through 17 volumes with a release span of one volume per month.

Each volume comes with a special slogan on the cover's promotional flap, written by the winners of a contest held on the official JoJonium website.

Phantom Blood will be covered in the span of the first 3 volumes, Battle Tendency will be covered on the next 4 volumes and Stardust Cruisaders will take the span of the last 10, that way completing the first batch of 17 volumes.
