A lollypop or a bullet #1

The delicate, sketch-like cover of this 2011 Glénat release sets a quietly unsettling tone — a young figure with a gun alongside a soft tumble of rabbits, the contrast between innocence and danger rendered in restrained grey tones. Based on the original work by Kazuki Sakuraba with manga adaptation by Iqura Sugimoto, this first volume promises a story where sweetness and something far sharper coexist uneasily. It's a striking opening chapter to what looks to be a thoughtful, emotionally layered series.
