薔薇王の葬列 [Bara Ou no Souretsu / Requiem of the Rose King] #11

A striking close-up of a dark-haired, blue-eyed young man in regal blue-and-white attire dominates this eleventh volume of Aya Kanno's Requiem of the Rose King, his intense gaze and drawn sword projecting both authority and dangerous resolve. A withered purple rose clutched in his grip adds a haunting, elegiac note perfectly suited to this Shakespeare-inspired manga series. Fans following this tale of power and identity will find volume 11 as visually compelling as ever.
