Altaïr #15

Volume 15 of Kotono Kato's sweeping military manga arrives in a breathtaking package — the cover presents a golden-haired warrior adorned in intricate blue-and-gold armor, winged helmet ablaze with fiery orange plumage, sword drawn as a swirl of white doves takes flight all around them. Kato's linework is as detailed and elegant as ever, weaving together the series' signature blend of ornate costume design and graceful movement into something genuinely striking. If you've been following Mahmut's journey through this richly imagined world, this 2017 Glénat edition is a beautiful reminder of why the series continues to captivate.
