The attempt to reach the imprisoned Griffith drives Berserk Volume 10, following Guts's return to the Hawks. The rescue premise assumes the collapse of the company's earlier position in Midland. This paperback is included in Deluxe 4, together with standard Volumes 11 and 12; Deluxe 10 contains a much later stretch. Match the collected numbers before buying, especially if moving from the larger hardcovers to individual paperbacks at this point.

Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.

Rescue has a destination here, but restoring the old company is a different proposition. The publisher describes Griffith in prolonged captivity and puts Guts and the Hawks on a mission into the dungeons. That premise permits an argument about the limits of returning: Guts can come back to his comrades without finding the circumstances he left intact. The mission can aim at freeing Griffith without being able to promise restoration of his former role. That difference makes the rescue more than a return to an earlier arrangement: reaching a captive and restoring a commander are not interchangeable objectives.
