Au bord de l'eau #8

Volume 8 of Mitsuteru Yokoyama's sweeping historical manga adaptation arrives in this handsome Éditions Delcourt edition, its darkly elegant cover depicting an armored warrior standing triumphant over two fallen opponents, weapon raised against a dramatic crimson-purple backdrop. The richly ornate border framing the image gives the whole package a sense of weight and ceremony befitting this epic tale. Fans of classical East Asian adventure will find plenty to savor here.
