紅い霧の中から [Akai Kiri no Naka kara] #1

A striking opening volume from Square Enix, From the Red Fog introduces readers to a deeply unsettling world through this arresting cover. The art and story are both by Mosae Nohara, whose work here centers on a pale, dark-haired young man rendered in blood-splattered detail — his wide, unnerving grin and intense eyes conveying something between menace and mania against a crimson-tinged, atmospheric background. It's a thoroughly moody first impression that sets an unmistakably dark, gothic tone for what lies ahead.
