バトルスタディーズ [Battle Studies] #30

A bespectacled, broad-shouldered ballplayer dominates this cover of Battle Studies Volume 30, rendered against a stark nighttime backdrop lit by a glowing full moon — an image that radiates quiet intensity. Baseball seams curve dramatically across the composition, reinforcing the sport at the heart of Nakibokuro's long-running series from Morning KC. Thirty volumes in, the series clearly hasn't lost its grip.
