Alice in Murderland #10

Kaori Yuki's dark fairy-tale manga reaches its tenth volume with a cover that perfectly captures the series' unsettling beauty — two golden-haired figures in frilled, blood-splattered Alice-inspired dresses clutch each other's hands in a grip that feels equal parts tender and threatening. The lower figure's wide, tear-filled eyes contrast sharply with the predatory expression of the one looming above, their tangled hair filling the vivid teal background in cascading waves of gold. If you've been following this ornate, gothic thriller, volume 10 promises the same striking visual intensity Yuki has delivered throughout the series.
