Casa Nostra #[nn]

Casa Nostra from Udon Comics sets a darkly glamorous tone right from the cover, where a mysterious fedora-wearing figure looms behind a raven-haired woman clutching a smoking revolver — all framed within an ornate gold border dripping with blood-red roses and crimson splatter. The Art Nouveau-inflected composition by Chris Sarracini and Nick Kilislian crackles with noir atmosphere, balancing menace and elegance in equal measure. If moody, crime-soaked storytelling wrapped in lush, seductive imagery is your thing, this 2018 Udon release belongs on your shelf.
